Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon salt
two 1-pound 3-ounce cans chick-peas, drained and rinsed
2/3 cup well stirred tahini
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, or to taste
1/2 cup olive oil, or to taste
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted lightly
Accompaniment:Toasted Pita Thins

Steps:

  • On a cutting board mince and mash the garlic to a paste with the salt. In a food processor purée the chick-peas with the garlic paste, the tahini, the lemon juice, 1/4 cup of the oil, and 1/2 cup water, scraping down the sides, until the hummus is smooth and add salt to taste. Add water, if necessary, to thin the hummus to the desired consistency and transfer the hummus to a bowl. In the food processor, cleaned, purée the remaining 1/4 cup oil with the parsley until the oil is bright green and the parsley is minced transfer the parsley oil to a small jar. The hummus and the parsley oil may be made 3 days in advance and kept covered and chilled. Divide the hummus between shallow serving dishes and smooth the tops. Drizzle the hummus with the parsley oil and sprinkle it with the pine nuts. Serve the hummus with the pita.

I don't recommend this recipe. My hummus turned out grainy and unappetizing.

This hummus is too bland for my taste. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it palatable.

I followed the recipe exactly and my hummus turned out really dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This hummus is okay. It's not the best I've ever had, but it's not bad either. I think it could use a little more lemon juice and garlic.

I'm not a big hummus fan, but this recipe is pretty good. It's not as thick and creamy as some other hummus recipes, but it has a nice flavor.

This hummus is a great appetizer or snack. It's also a good way to use up leftover chickpeas.

This hummus is amazing! It's so creamy and flavorful. I love the hint of garlic and lemon. It's the perfect dip for pita bread, vegetables, or anything else you can think of.

I was a bit skeptical about making my own hummus, but I'm so glad I did! This recipe is so easy to follow and the hummus turned out so creamy and delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

I've made hummus before, but this recipe is by far the best one I've tried. It's so easy to make and the flavor is just amazing. I love how versatile it is too. I can use it as a dip, a sandwich spread, or even as a salad dressing.
