Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can chickpeas (15 oz.), drained and rinsed
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Salt to taste
  • Water as needed
  • Paprika and parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Combine the chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, and salt in a food processor.
  2. Blend until you achieve a smooth and creamy texture, scraping down the sides as needed.
  3. If the hummus is too thick, add water, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
  4. Taste your hummus and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  5. Transfer the hummus to a serving dish, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with paprika and freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Notes
