Lebanese Hummus
Serving Size, Ingredients and Equipment:
1 1/2 cup canned chick peas (or slightly overcooked, soft chick peas) skin removed, drained and left for awhile to air-dry, any drained liquid set aside separately
1/2 cup tahin, a creamy variety and not a thick, grainy type
1/2 tsp sea salt
juice from 1 lemon
1 tbsp olive oil
2 ice cubes or 4 tbsp crushed ice (alternative: 1 large glass iced water)
1 clove garlic, 1/2 tsp ground cumin
Sweet paprika and / or chili powder for garnish
Cooking Instructions and Methods:
Blend the moisture-reduced chick peas until they have a sandy, grainy texture.
Blend in the ice cubes, pour into a serving bowl and top with drizzled olive oil.(Instead of the ice cubes, try adding ice cold water when blending to make the humus smoother. )
Add more water or liquid from the chick peas if your hummus is too thick.
Decorate with paprika and / or chili powder.
