Tips:

  • Use dried chickpeas: Dried chickpeas are more flavorful and have a better texture than canned chickpeas. If you don't have time to soak them overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
  • Don't overcook the chickpeas: Overcooked chickpeas will be mushy and bland. Cook them until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them.
  • Use a food processor: A food processor will make quick work of pureeing the chickpeas. If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender, but you may need to do it in batches.
  • Season the hummus to taste: Hummus is a versatile dish that can be seasoned to your liking. Start with the basic ingredients and then add more salt, lemon juice, garlic, or cumin until it reaches your desired flavor.
  • Serve hummus with a variety of toppings: Hummus is a great appetizer or snack. Serve it with pita bread, vegetables, or crackers. You can also use it as a spread for sandwiches or wraps.

This classic hummus recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
