This recipe is very easy. Once you get all your ingredients gathered, it's a matter of tossing it all into a blender or food processor and then tasting to adjust the flavors.
And you can decide how long to blend it. If you like a creamy hummus, you'll want to blend it longer, and add more olive oil. Be sure to taste as you go. I added more lemon juice and garlic as I went along, and decided to blend it beyond it being a little chunky. Rowan helped with the tasting.
She shares my love for hummus, so this was a recipe tasting that she did NOT want to miss. So after you've tasted and adjusted the flavor, it's ready to eat! But you can refrigerate it for a while if you like your hummus chilled.
Rowan likes her hummus with pita chips, and I like it with fresh vegetables. But this would be so good scooped onto a salad, or spread onto a sandwich. Enjoy!
We will be trying this one! Marcus made hummus for the first time a few weeks ago and I couldn't get enough. Bet he will enjoy this recipe. Thanks for the invention!
ReplyDeleteThat definitely looks like a winner! If it's fit for a princess, it must be divine! Great job on your replication, it looks mighty fine!
ReplyDeleteCrap, I did not mean to make that rhyme. Too much Seuss. Seriously though, this hummus looks aMAYzing! I really think you should go all Baskin Robbins on the chick pea because, if for no other reason, to take over for the college kid who quit on you. You should start a cookbook R! I know that you adapt most of your recipes and they are delicious!!!! You could call it The Reci"pea" Book: all you need to know about hummus. xoxo
ReplyDeleteOkay so seriously, I think you should write a recipe book. In addition to doing embroidery and other crafts. So two books. I'd buy them. I'm in awe. You could be Martha Stewart only nicer, cuter & generally more congenial.
ReplyDeleteNeedless to say I'm so pinning this!
Oh yummy! I´ve only had hummus a couple of times but I really liked it, this looks delicious! :-)
