Steps:
- Add the beans and minced garlic to the bowl of a food processor. Puree until a smooth mixture forms.
- While the processor is running, add an ice cube, tahini, lemon juice, spices and a big dash of kosher salt. Blend for about 4 minutes or so. Check, and if the consistency is too thick, run processor and slowly add a drizzle of hot water. Blend until you reach your desired silky smooth consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasoning and lemon juice to your liking. If you need more garlic, add another minced clove. And if you like the dip to be even more nutty, add a little more tahini. Make sure to run the processor again until everything is well combined.
- Serve or chill the dip for a later time (chilling will thicken the white bean hummus some, which is recommended). When ready to serve, spread the hummus in a serving bowl and add a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Top with 2 to 3 teaspoons of dukkah, if using.

Tips:
- Use dried white beans for the most flavorful hummus. If using canned beans, rinse and drain them well before using.
- Soak the beans overnight in cold water to reduce cooking time. If you're short on time, you can also quick-soak the beans by boiling them for 1 minute and then letting them sit for 1 hour.
- To make the hummus extra smooth, peel the beans before cooking them. To do this, simply rub the beans between your fingers until the skins come off.
- Use a food processor or high-powered blender to achieve a smooth and creamy hummus. If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can also mash the beans by hand, but it will take a bit more effort.
- Taste the hummus and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more lemon juice, salt, or garlic depending on your preferences.
- Serve the hummus with pita bread, crackers, vegetables, or your favorite dippers. You can also use it as a spread for sandwiches or wraps.
Conclusion:
White bean hummus is a delicious and healthy dip or spread that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful snack, give white bean hummus a try. You won't be disappointed!
