ROASTED RED PEPPER HUMMUS WITH PINE NUTS



Roasted Red Pepper Hummus With Pine Nuts image

I tend to make most things with less olive oil than the original recipe calls for, and this hummus is no exception. My hummus is a bit thicker than the hummus you might find in a Mediterranean restaurant, but I've found that the addition of a freshly roasted red bell pepper and as much of the "juice" as you can preserve from the roasting process goes a long way in recreating some of the creaminess of a hummus dripping with olive oil, and with far fewer calories.

Provided by Lizzymommy

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 -2 roasted red pepper (from a jar if you must, but roasting them yourself is easy and oh so delicious!)
3 1/2 cups garbanzo beans
1/4 cup tahini
2 -3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
12 -15 garlic cloves (as much or as little as you'd like*)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon dried coriander
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
crushed red pepper flakes
1 pinch cayenne
1/4-1/2 cup toasted pine nuts

Steps:

  • Note: *I use anywhere from 12-15 cloves, but your mileage may vary. It's also good to keep in mind that raw garlic takes a while to fully flavor a dish, so be careful of relying too much on that first taste. You just might end up adding more garlic when you don't actually need it (ha, as if there was such a thing!). When I make my hummus and serve it on the same day, I usually back off on the fresh garlic and increase the garlic powder, which gives more of an immediate flavor.
  • If you're roasting your own peppers, throw them in the broiler now. Broil peppers until they're burnt to a crisp. Use tongs to place pepper in sealed plastic container and steam for 5-10 minutes (the longer you wait, the easier it will be to get that skin off). Carefully peel away blackened skin, then remove stem and seeds while preserving as much of the liquid inside the pepper as you can.
  • Toast pine nuts in a hot, dry saucepan. These two things (broiling peppers and toasting pine nuts) can both be done while you're combining the rest of the ingredients, but be sure to keep an eye on the pine nuts, as they go from raw to perfectly toasted to burnt to a crisp in a matter of seconds.
  • Combine garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, cumin, coriander, paprika, garlic powder, crushed red pepper, and cayenne in food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Add roasted, peeled peppers** and as much of their liquid as you managed to save to food processor and blend into garbanzo bean mixture.
  • Slowly drizzle olive oil into mixture until you get the consistency you're looking for.
  • Taste the hummus. At this point, it usually needs another squirt of lemon juice and a half pinch of salt to really solidify the flavor.
  • Garnish with paprika and toasted pine nuts and serve with vegetables, crackers, baguette slices, or pita
  • (serving size is approximately 1/3 c).

JALAPENO & ROASTED RED PEPPER HUMMUS



Jalapeno & Roasted Red Pepper Hummus image

Another nice hummus recipe that makes use of my garden's peppers by way of The Wichita Eagle who got it from the North American Olive Oil Association. This one is a little lighter on the lemon & tahini - adjust to your taste of course. Use a potato masher to crush the garbanzos if you do not have food processor or blender - did it that way myself for years & now I prefer a chunkier hummus to the ultra-smooth, go figure. Serve with baked pita bread or pita chips or stuff into tomatoes (big cherries piped with smooth spicy hummus are great heavy hors d'oeuvres).

ROASTED RED PEPPER HUMMUS (TAHINI-FREE)



Roasted Red Pepper Hummus (Tahini-Free) image

I love hummus - but I hate paying for it at the store because I know how cheap the actual ingredients are, so I started to make it myself! I never have tahini on hand, so I do without. Makes the perfect snack at work along with some carrots, sugar snap peas, and cucumbers! I never measure the spices, so below are approximations. **You can also use dried/cooked chickpeas instead of canned.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (15 1/2 ounce) cans chickpeas (garbanzo beans)

  • Drizzle in olive oil (I usually use do one turn of the food processor, approximately 1 TBSP).
  • Blend for about 30 seconds. Add some of the chickpea liquid if needed to get the right consistency.
  • Continue to blend until smooth and creamy, scraping the sides and adding more liquid as needed.
  • Enjoy with your favorite veggies or pita chips. My favorites are carrots, cucumber slices, sugar snap peas, and red bell peppers!

ROASTED RED PEPPER HUMMUS



Roasted Red Pepper Hummus image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 10h50m

Yield 4 ounces

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup dried garbanzo beans (chickpeas) or two 15-ounce cans
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 red bell pepper
1 teaspoon plus 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for serving
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons tahini
2 3/4 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Feta cheese (optional), for serving

Steps:

  • If using dried beans, soak them overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Drain, rinse and place in a large saucepan and cover with 2 quarts water. Add the baking soda and bring to a boil. Cook until the beans are firm but tender, about 1 hour. (Garbanzo beans can be tricky and can require as much as 2 hours to cook so keep testing them. You want the beans tender but not mushy).
  • Drain and cover with cool water. Agitate the beans to remove as many of the skins as possible. They will separate and float to the surface and can be removed with a small strainer (this will make the texture of your hummus nice and smooth).
  • Drain the beans and allow them to cool completely.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Coat the red pepper with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil and place on a baking sheet. Bake until the outside is charred, 30 to 40 minutes. Alternatively grill the pepper until it is charred and soft.
  • Place the pepper in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and allow the skin to steam off, about 15 minutes or until cool enough to handle.
  • Once the pepper has cooled, remove the skin, stem and seeds and coarsely chop.
  • Place the roasted red pepper, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, cumin, black pepper, 3 cups of garbanzo beans and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a food processor and process until creamy, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • To serve, drizzle with olive oil and top with the crumbled feta cheese if using.

Tips:

  • For the smoothest hummus, use canned chickpeas that have been rinsed and drained.
  • If you don't have tahini, you can use a mixture of peanut butter and olive oil.
  • Add more or less roasted red peppers depending on how spicy you want the hummus.
  • Garnish the hummus with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of paprika, and a few fresh herbs.
  • Serve the hummus with pita bread, vegetables, or crackers. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Conclusion:

Red pepper hummus is a delicious and versatile dip or spread that can be enjoyed as a snack, appetizer, or main course. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful snack, give red pepper hummus a try!
