BEET HUMMUS



Beet Hummus image

I know beet hummus may not sound like it would taste very good. However, when I tried the hummus I couldn't taste the beet anymore and it had the most beautiful purply pink color. I could eat it with carrots and just enjoy it on a wrap or piece of toast. You seriously can't taste the beet and I can't stress this enough because I know this is what worries most people with these kinds of recipes. Beets are just packed with great nutritional benefits so I seriously recommend this recipe. Store in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Look for beets that are firm and smooth, with no bruises or blemishes. Beets with deep red color will produce the most vibrant hummus.
  • Roast the beets before using them: Roasting the beets will intensify their flavor and make them easier to blend. You can roast the beets whole or cut them into chunks. If you're roasting them whole, wrap them in foil to prevent them from drying out.
  • Use a variety of chickpeas: You can use canned chickpeas or dried chickpeas that have been cooked. If you're using dried chickpeas, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking them. You can also use a combination of chickpeas and other beans, such as white beans or kidney beans.
  • Add flavorings and spices: Hummus is a versatile dish that can be flavored with a variety of ingredients. Some popular flavorings include lemon juice, tahini, garlic, cumin, and paprika. You can also add fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley.
  • Process the hummus until it's smooth: Use a food processor or blender to process the hummus until it's smooth and creamy. You may need to add a little water or olive oil to help it blend.
  • Serve the hummus immediately or store it for later: Hummus can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. To store the hummus, cover it tightly with plastic wrap or store it in an airtight container.

Conclusion:

Beet hummus is a delicious and healthy dip that's perfect for parties, potlucks, or a snack. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its vibrant color and earthy flavor, beet hummus is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
