Don’t EVER buy hummus from the store again…this is the best recipe I’ve found! Just be sure not to tripple the recipe and mess up your math. Tonight it had a funny taste, and after re-checking the recipe, I discovered that I messed up the amount of sesame oil and olive oil, and ended up with 6T of sesame oil instead of 3t!!!! Oops. Meya still loved it :-) Guess we will work on fixing that tonight!
2 cups cooked chickpeas (canned is ok, soaking your own is best)
2-3 T freshly squeezed lemon juice (adjust to taste)
2-3 T tahini
2 T extra-virgin olive oil
1 small to medium garlic clove
1/2 t toasted sesame oil
1/2 t sea salt
3-4 T water (or less/more as desired)
Freshly ground pepper to taste
In a blender or food processor, combine all the ingredients and puree until smooth, adding a little water at first, then more if desired to thin it. Scrape down sides of bowl several times throughout and puree again until very smooth. Season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and/or lemon juice. Serve in a large bowl, drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil.
