Silky Tahini Hummus

15 min · 6 appetizer servings


Ingredients

□ 2 (15 oz) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed

□ 1/2 cup tahini

□ 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

□ 2 garlic cloves, minced

□ 1 tsp ground cumin

□ 1 tsp kosher salt

□ 1/4 cup ice water

□ 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

□ Warm pita bread and raw vegetables, for serving

Directions

1. Rinse chickpeas. Process tahini, lemon, garlic, cumin, and salt until pale and glossy.

2. Add chickpeas and blend smooth. Drizzle in ice water and process until silky.

3. Balance lemon and salt, then swirl into a bowl with olive oil, pita, and vegetables.

Cook’s note: Ice water gives the puree a noticeably lighter, silkier texture.
