The Best And Smoothest Hummus
- 1 30oz can chickpeas, drained with juice reserved, rinsed and skins peeled
- 1 cup tahini paste
- 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 1.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- Peel skins off of the chickpeas. Squeeze the chickpea upward between your thumb and finger and the chickpea should pop right out of the skin. Toss the peeled chickpeas in a separate bowl and skins in another.
- In a large food processor, process the peeled chickpeas for 1 minute.
- Add tahini, lemon juice, salt and garlic. Process and leave on to blend. Drizzle in chickpea juice, one tablespoon at a time, until you put in 8 tablespoons of juice. The hummus should be very smooth. If not, drizzle in some more juice.
- Drizzle a little EVOO on the hummus, and serve hummus with toasted pita or raw vegetables.
