Ingredients
- 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Garbanzo Beans (a.k.a. Chick Peas), Drained And Rinsed Well Or You Can Substitute Dried Beans That Have Been Soaked And Cooked To Make It Really Cheaply
- 1/2 cups Lemon Juice
- 1 teaspoon Cumin (don't Skip This)
- 1 clove Garlic, Chopped
- 1/4 cups Olive Oil
Method
- Put all ingredients except olive oil into a food processor.
- I tried this once before with a blender and it really doesnt work since it all gets stuck, but if you are patient (Im not) you could make it work.
- You just need to keep opening the top and mixing the beans up inside the blender.
- While you are running the food processor, open the little hole at the top and stream in the oil.
- This will result in the creamy texture of delicious hummus.
- Depending on how you like your consistency, you will use more or less oil.
- When its finally done, you need to have a little taste to figure out if it needs more garlic (I say the more garlic, the better, so we usually use 2 cloves), salt, lemon, oil, etc.
- to suit your familys preferences.
- If you make this with dried beans, you will have a TON of hummus.
- It freezes beautifully.
- We like our hummus on crackers, carrot sticks, homemade pita bread or chips, and pretzels.
