OLIVE HUMMUS

Salty kalamatas and pimento-stuffed green olives lend a little pizzazz to plain ol' hummus.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 15-ounce can chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans) drained, but reserve the liquid
1/3 cup tahini
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 1-2 lemons)
2 minced garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste
3/4 cup kalamata olives (pitted)
3/4 cup green olives with pimento
Olive oil (smoked paprika, and additional sliced olives for garnish)

Steps:

  • To the bowl of a food processor or high-powered blender, add the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pulse, adding the liquid from the beans as needed to keep things moving, until the hummus is very smooth.
  • Add the olives and pulse until chopped. I like to whirr them almost completely in; you may prefer a chunkier hummus. Taste and add additional salt if desired.
  • Scoop into a serving bowl and top with additional sliced olives, a sprinkle of smoked paprika, and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
  • Keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for 3-4 days.

HUMMUS WITH OLIVES AND PEPPERONCINI



Hummus With Olives and Pepperoncini image

This is great as a dip for a party or just on some bread as a quick lunch. A bit more adventurous than the standard hummus. For the smoked paprika you can use either hot or mild, your choice. For the olives I like to use a mix of green and black. Use the best quality extra virgin olive oil you can afford - it really shines in this recipe. I use garlic powder in this recipe because when I make it with fresh garlic no one can get near me for the next 12 hours. If you want to use fresh garlic, just substitute 2 cloves of fresh garlic, chopped, for the garlic powder, and get ready for some seriously delicious garlic breath!

Time 10m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (15 1/2 ounce) can chickpeas, drained & rinsed
2 tablespoons tahini
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup chopped olive
1 pepperoncini pepper, seeded & chopped
1 -2 teaspoon pepperoncini brine
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1/8-1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 -2 ounce water (or liquid from chickpeas)
chopped parsley
olive oil
paprika

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients EXCEPT THE WATER AND THE SALT in the bowl of a food processor and process until the mixture is a thick paste.
  • With the food processor running, add the hot water a bit at a time, until the mixture is the consistency you want it to be (some like it thicker than others -- ).
  • Taste the hummus. The pepperoncini brine will have made it a bit salty. If you'd like more salt, add it 1/8 of a teaspoon at a time until it is salty enough for your tastes.
  • If you are serving immediately, place in a bowl and make a hollow in the middle of the hummus. Drizzle on 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with smoked paprika and parsley.

GREEN OLIVE HUMMUS

Ordinary hummus gets an upgrade with green olives in the puree.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 15m

Yield 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large clove garlic
1 1/2 cups pitted large green olives packed in oil (7 1/2 ounces), such as Cerignola
One 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup parsley leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Kosher salt
Pita chips, crackers or crudites, for serving

Steps:

  • Pulse the garlic in a food processor. Add the olives and chickpeas and pulse until a chunky paste starts to form.
  • With the motor running, drizzle in the oil. Add the parsley, cumin and lemon juice. Season with salt. Pulse to combine, scraping down the sides.
  • Transfer the hummus to a bowl. Serve with pita chips, crackers or crudites.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the hummus will taste. Look for fresh, flavorful chickpeas, tahini, and olive oil.
  • Soak the chickpeas overnight: This will help them to soften and cook more evenly. If you're short on time, you can also use canned chickpeas, but be sure to rinse them well before using.
  • Cook the chickpeas until they are very tender: This will make them easier to blend and will give the hummus a smoother texture.
  • Use a good quality tahini: This is one of the main ingredients in hummus, so it's important to use a good one. Look for tahini that is made from 100% sesame seeds and that has a smooth, creamy texture.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors: There are many ways to customize hummus to your liking. Try adding different spices, herbs, or vegetables. You can also use different types of beans, such as black beans or white beans.

Conclusion:

Hummus is a delicious and versatile dip that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It's perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply as a snack. With its creamy texture and flavorful ingredients, hummus is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying snack or dip, give hummus a try. You won't be disappointed!
