Steps:
- Add the beans and minced garlic to the bowl of a food processor. Puree until a smooth mixture forms.
- While the processor is running, add an ice cube, tahini, lemon juice, spices and a big dash of kosher salt. Blend for about 4 minutes or so. Check, and if the consistency is too thick, run processor and slowly add a drizzle of hot water. Blend until you reach your desired silky smooth consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasoning and lemon juice to your liking. If you need more garlic, add another minced clove. And if you like the dip to be even more nutty, add a little more tahini. Make sure to run the processor again until everything is well combined.
- Serve or chill the dip for a later time (chilling will thicken the white bean hummus some, which is recommended). When ready to serve, spread the hummus in a serving bowl and add a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Top with 2 to 3 teaspoons of dukkah, if using.

Tips:
- Use dried chickpeas and cannellini beans: Soaking and cooking dried beans yourself will give you the best flavor and texture. If you're short on time, you can use canned beans, but be sure to rinse and drain them well before using.
- Don't overcook the beans: Overcooked beans will be mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender, about 1 hour for dried beans and 30 minutes for canned beans.
- Use a good quality tahini: Tahini is a key ingredient in this dip, so it's important to use a good quality brand. Look for tahini that is made from 100% sesame seeds and has a smooth, creamy texture.
- Add your favorite spices: This dip is very versatile, so you can add your favorite spices to taste. Some good options include cumin, coriander, paprika, and chili powder.
- Serve with your favorite dippers: This dip can be served with a variety of dippers, such as pita chips, crackers, vegetables, or bread.
