more hummus love. must be going on a hummus shtick or something...can't get enough of the stuff especially since i know how easy it is to make it!! this time around i followed (very loosely) this recipe for sumac and smoked paprika hummus. well, since i like my hummus very bold in flavoring, the sumac and the paprika got upped a bit to get that taste that was floating around in my head. conclusion? this was very, very good. mmmmm.....
Sumac Paprika Hummus
(adapted from Frugal By Choice)
2 cans garbanzo beans/chickpeas
5 cloves of garlic or 2 tbs garlic minced to a paste
juice of 1 lemon or lime
1 tsp kosher salt
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup tahini (i like mid-east tahini)
2 tbs of smoked paprika, plus more for sprinkling on top
1/2 tsp of sumac, plus more for sprinkling on top
dried parsley
drain garbanzo beans a reserve half a cup of liquid. in a food processor or blender, add all the ingredients exept the olive oil and blend until mixed. after a minute or so, drizzle the olive oil in with the machine is still going. add a bit of the reserved liquid if needed. once the hummus is super smooth, stop the machine and adjust seasoning to taste. when done, put hummus in a tupperware container and drizzle with additional olive oil with a sprinkle of paprika, sumac, and dried parsley on top. place in fridge for about an hour to let the flavors develop and serve with pita chips or veggies!
makes about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of hummus.
