The Best Hummus on Earth

Thursday, December 20, 2007 · No Comments

Hummus is a staple in this house, as it is in many veggie households. Here is my quick and easy recipe!

You will need:

  • 1 can of chickpeas, drained
  • 1T of tahini paste
  • 2T olive oil
  • 1 clove of garlic, peeled and crushed (more or less, depending on what you like)
  • 1t cayenne pepper
  • 1/2t cumin
  • 2t lemon juice
  • 1T soy sauce (reduced sodium!)
  • about 1T of soymilk*

Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. You can eat it right away, but it’s best after it has been refrigerated for a few hours. The flavors really blend nicely, then.

*I just use a splash of soymilk while it is processing. It gives it a nice, creamy texture.

Serve with veggies or pita bread and enjoy!
