Easy Homemade Hummus

Dried beans are good to keep on hand. And hummus is great for all occasions.

 


INGREDIENTS

  • Cooking Time: 30 min
  • Servings: 6
  • Preparation Time: 60 min
  • 1/2 lb dried chickpeas
  • Water
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • (Optional) 2 tablespoons tahini
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • Chopped tomatoes and parsley for garnish

DIRECTIONS

If desired, soak chickpeas overnight in water. An easier method is to use a pressure cooker. Just cook them at high pressure for 30 minutes. Check to make sure the peas are very soft.



Remove just the chickpeas from the water and place in food processor. Blend them until smooth, adding just enough cooking water to make a nice smooth mixture.



As it processes, add olive oil, garlic, optional tahini, and salt and pepper.



Spoon into serving bowl, garnishing with chopped tomato and parsley.
