Hummus
- 3 cloves Garlic, Coarsley Chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3/4 cups Tahini
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Plus Extra To Drizzle On Top
- 13 cups Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
- 2 cups Drained Chickpeas (reserve The Liquid!)
- 1/2 cups Gently Packed Parsley Leaves
- 18 teaspoons Chili Powder
- 6 Tablespoons Chickpea Liquid (may Require More)
- 1.
- In a blender or food processer, pulse together the garlic, salt, tahini, olive oil, and lemon juice until the garlic is finely chopped.
- 2.
- Add the chickpeas, parsley leaves, chile powder, and 6 tablespoons of chick pea liquid, and pulse until smooth.
- Stop the machine a couple of times during blending to scrape down the sides to make sure everything gets properly mixed in.
- 3.
- Taste, and add more lemon juice or salt if desired, and more of the chickpea liquid until it reaches a thick, but spreadable consistency.
- You can make your hummus as smooth or as lumpy as you like; I prefer a totally smooth hummus that is lump free.
- Place in a bowl for serving, creating a well in the center and drizzle additional olive oil on top.
- Serve with pita chips, crusty French bread pieces, or vegetables.
- Hummus will keep in your fridge for about 4 days, but can also be frozen if well wrapped for up to two months.
