Number Of Ingredients 18

CHECCA:
10 medium garlic cloves
3 cups drained canned cannellini beans abt two 15 oz cans (or great northern beans)
1/2 cup sesame paste (tahini)
1/4 cup freshly-squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce plus
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup cold water - (to 1/2) if needed
2 tablespoons minced fresh Italian parsley for garnish
2 pound Roma tomatoes cut 1/2" dice
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Fit a food processor with the steel blade. Process the garlic cloves until finely minced, stopping the processor occasionally to scrape down the sides of the work bowl. Add the beans and pulse the machine a few times to chop them coarsely. Then, with the machine running, puree them while you slowly pour the sesame paste through the feed tube. Still with the motor running, pour the olive oil, lemon juice, and soy sauce through the feed tube, stopping the processor occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Stop the processor, open the lid, and add the salt, cumin, coriander, and cayenne. Process until thoroughly blended. If the puree seems too thick for dipping or spreading, pulse in the 1/4 to 1/2 cup cold water. Transfer the puree to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate to chill well before serving. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Put the pita breads in the oven and heat until thoroughly warmed, 6 to 8 minutes. Carefully remove and cut into wedges. Place the chilled hummus in a serving plate or bowl and arrange the tomato Checca on top. Garnish with the chopped parsley and surround with the pita triangles. Serve immediately. For the Checca: In a mixing bowl, toss together the Checca ingredients, mixing them thoroughly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving time. This recipe yields ?? servings.

I thought this hummus was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.

I found this recipe to be a bit too salty. I would recommend using less salt, or omitting it altogether.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my hummus turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have much flavor.

I love that this recipe uses canned chickpeas. It makes it so easy to make hummus at home. I also like that it doesn't require any special equipment. I just used my food processor to blend the ingredients together.

This hummus is a great make-ahead appetizer. I made it a few days ahead of time and it was still just as delicious. It's also really versatile. I've used it as a dip for vegetables, pita chips, and crackers. I've also spread it on sandwiches and wrap
