Categories     Vegetable     Condiment/Spread     Appetizer     No-Cook

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cans Chickpeas, drained & rinsed (can substitute plain hummus)
1/3 cup Honey
1/3 cup Tahini
1/4 cup Lemon juice
2 cloves Garlic, peeled
1 teaspoon Cumin
1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon Saffron Threads, crumbled
1/8 teaspoon Ground Cloves
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 bunch Cilantro or parsley, chopped as garnish

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients except for cilantro or parsley in a food processor and process until smooth. Adjust seasonings to taste.
  • If starting with plain hummus, omit tahini and chickpeas and adjust seasonings to taste.

Tips:

  • For the most flavorful hummus, use high-quality tahini. Look for a brand that is made with 100% sesame seeds and has a smooth, creamy texture.
  • Be sure to soak the chickpeas overnight before cooking them. This will help them to soften and become more digestible.
  • If you don't have time to soak the chickpeas 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.
  • When cooking the chickpeas, be sure to add a bay leaf and a few cloves of garlic to the pot. This will help to flavor the chickpeas.
  • Once the chickpeas are cooked, drain them and reserve the cooking liquid. You may need some of the cooking liquid to achieve the desired consistency of your hummus.
  • When making the hummus, be sure to use a food processor or blender to get a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Taste the hummus and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more lemon juice, salt, or cumin.
  • Serve the hummus with your favorite accompaniments, such as pita bread, vegetables, or crackers.
