Ingredients
- 1 15 ounce can chickpeas drained, or 1½ cups cooked chickpeas
- ½ teaspoon basking soda
- 4 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 2 large cloves garlic
- ¼ cup tahini
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 to 3 ice cubes
Instructions
- Place the drained chickpeas and the baking soda in a pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook on a low boil for 15 minutes. This helps soften the chickpeas for a smoother hummus.
- Drain the chickpeas and place them in a food processor along with the lemon juice, tahini, garlic, and salt. If you want even smoother hummus, you can remove the skins from the chickpeas. They will slip off easily after you cook the chickpeas.
- Blend the ingredients until the hummus is smooth. 2 to 3 ice cubes can be added to the food processor for fluffier hummus.
