I have watched Chef Deanna make this recipe a few times and am in awe of how creamy and smooth her hummus is. She uses a magic trick at the very beginning and I have started using it as well, to rave reviews. You will never buy store bought Hummus again after making this! Hint… use the baking soda, you won’t regret it.
Ingredients
- 1 can Chickpeas drained
- 1/4 cup Tahini
- 3 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tbsp Hummus Blend
- 2 tbsp MTOO California Garlic Olive Oil
- 2 tbsp MTOO Milanese Gremolata
- 1 tbsp MTOO Dukkah for garnish
Instructions
- Simmer chickpeas in 1 tablespoon baking soda for 10 minutes. Drain the chickpeas after simmering and agitate in the colander to remove the skins.
- In a food processor, add the spice mix, lemon juice and tahini. Blend until very smooth. Add the chickpeas and process until smooth, stopping to scrape the sides down as needed
- With the machine running, slowly add olive oil, one tablespoon at a time, until hummus is light, creamy, and smooth. If you want to reduce the oil you may add a little room temperature water to help loosen the hummus
- Taste and adjust seasonings, such as a little salt or lemon. Spoon the hummus into a bowl and rub the back of the spoon over the top to make a pretty swirl. Top with additional California Garlic olive oil and dukkah.
