My Best Hummus

Total Time: 11 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 6 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 12
  • 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas
  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon cumin (or more to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon coriander
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lemon, juice of
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 teaspoons parsley (fresh or dry)
  • 1/2-1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons water (thin to taste)

Recipe

  • 1 first i drain and rinse the chickpeas very well (this is important). when i have time, i will boil them for 5 minutes and then let them sit in the water for an hour because the are sometimes still very hard in the can.
  • 2 i put all of the ingredients into the food processor and i run the processor, pulsing at first, then full on.
  • 3 i like my hummus very smooth, so i process for about 5-6 minutes, scraping down and stirring a few times. i also like to add water until it is very smooth (personal taste). i taste for seasoning and sometimes add more salt, pepper, etc. add a little extra cayenne and smoked paprika for a much more spicy and exciting hummus. if you like lemon hummus, add more lemon zest and lemon juice and leave out the paprika and coriander.
  • 4 enjoy!
