1 cup dried chickpeas
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup tahini
2 cloves garlic, optional
1/4 cup cold water
Olive oil, for serving

With the motor running, drizzle in the water and continue to blend for 1 more minute. Taste and add additional salt to taste.
