A friend of mine has a Mediterranean food truck called Pitas Bites at my beer garden in Houston, Texas, Rosehill Beer Garden, and I swear, he makes the best hummus I've ever had. Imported olive oil helps him keep his menu as authentic as he can. Over time, he has shared a few of his recipes, but his hummus stays under lock and key. I've tried at least a dozen times to no avail to crack the code, and so I decided to create my own sacred hummus recipe with a little Tex-Mex flair, but instead of keeping it top secret, I am sharing it here with you.

Steps:
- In a food processor, pulse the chickpeas 2 to 3 times just to begin breaking down the beans. Add the tahini, lemon juice, adobo sauce, cumin, garlic salt, and black pepper. Pulse 2 to 3 times more to incorporate the ingredients.
- Continue to pulse as you slowly add the chickpea liquid, then the olive oil, until the hummus is smooth and creamy with no visible sign of whole chickpeas.
- Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with more olive oil, and sprinkle with the Tajin seasoning before serving. Leftovers will keep, covered and refrigerated, for 3 to 5 days.
