Mince garlic in food processor.
Drain the can of chickpeas and reserve 2 tablespoons of the liquid. Add the chickpeas and chickpea water (aquafaba) to the food processor.
Add remaining ingredients and process until you reach desired consistency.
- If you make your own chickpeas from dried you will need 2 cups of cooked beans for this recipe.
- Remember - tahini gives this recipe a lovely nutty flavor but be careful not to add too much or it could make your hummus taste bitter.
- TIP! Peel the chickpeas before you blend the mixture for an even creamier taste.
- Serve in a bowl and garnish with a sprinkle with sumac, parsley, or paprika, and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
- For dipping, we love sliced veggies like red peppers, carrots, and cucumbers. Warm pita bread or Baked Pita Chips are also delicious.
- Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Instead of mayo substitute this hummus on your sandwiches.
