INGREDIENTS
- 2 15.5-oz cans Garbanzo beans ; (chickpeas) drained, with liquid reserved
- 2 teaspoons Cumin powder
- 3/4 teaspoon Black Pepper ; freshly ground
- 3/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1/3 cup Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh garlic ; chopped
- 1/3 cup Tahini ; (sesame seed paste)
- 4 whole Chipotle chiles in adobo sauce ; (use more or less to taste)
- 2 teaspoons Adobo sauce from canned chipotle chiles ; (use more or less to taste)
INSTRUCTIONS
Puree all ingredients except bean liquid in a food processor. Gradually add the minimum amount of chickpea liquid required to give the mixture a thick, creamy, smooth consistency. Blend until all graininess is gone. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Note: Using 4 chiles makes this hummus mildly spicy.
NOTES
The perfect snack to have on hand in the fridge - serve with pita chips, bagel chips, or regular pita bread. This is a great addition to a potluck, and travels well for picnics and car trips. Makes good sandwiches too - with cucumbers, lettuce (or sprouts), tomatoes, and red onions.
