Best 7 Hominy Hummus Recipes

THE BEST HUMMUS

Steps:

• Drain the chickpeas in a medium mesh sieve, reserving the liquid. Reserve about 7 chickpeas for garnish.
• Process the tahini, garlic and cumin in a food processor. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in 2/3 cup of the reserved chickpea liquid (if you don't have exactly 2/3 cup, add water until the total amount is 2/3 cup) and process until light and very creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. The mixture will appear broken at first but will come together after all the liquid is added and has been processed for a minute or two.
• Add the chickpeas, the lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the tahini mixture. Process until the mixture is extremely smooth, scraping down the sides occasionally, about 4 minutes. Thin with more water if you prefer a looser consistency. Taste and season with more salt, lemon juice or cumin as desired.
• Spoon the hummus into a shallow bowl, making a well in the center, and drizzle liberally with oil. Top with the reserved chickpeas and sprinkle with paprika. Serve with pita bread, pita chips or cut raw vegetables.

HOMINY HUMMUS

Steps:

• NOTE: Allow 2 pounds rinsed, trimmed, raw vegetables such as bell peppers, jicama, and celery for every 8 to 10 servings. Drain the hominy. In a food processor or a blender, combine the hominy, creamed corn, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and cayenne. Whirl until smooth. Mound hummus into a bowl. (If making ahead, cover and chill up to a day; let warm to room temperature.) Sprinkle hummus with chopped radishes and offer crisp raw vegetables to scoop up the mixture.

SUPER EASY HUMMUS

Steps:
