Creamy Hummus

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can chickpeas
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 large garlic clove
  • 1/2 cup tahini
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 3 tbsp ice water
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Garnish:

  • olive oil
  • Sumac
  • Parsley, finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Drain and rise chickpeas and transfer into a medium saucepan. Cover the chickpeas with a few inches of water and add baking soda (it helps them get soft). Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium. Boil for 20 min.
  • In food processor, add the lemon juice, garlic and salt. Blend until garlic is finely minced. Let rest for 10 min so garlic flavour can mellow off.
  • When chickpeas are done, drain the water and rinse them under cold water to cool them off. Set aside.
  • Add the cumin and tahini to the food processor and blend on high.
  • While food processor is still blending, slowly add the ice water.
  • Turn off the food processor and add the chickpeas. Blend on high while slowly drilling in the olive oil. Blend for about 2 min until nice and creamy. Garnish with olive oil, sumac and parsley and get dippin’
