HUMMUS WITH TOASTED PINE NUTS, CUMIN SEEDS AND PARSLEY OIL
Hummus is so common today it's almost become a little boring. Not this version! The starchiness of the chickpeas is counteracted by the sharpness of the parsley oil. Plus the bright green oil makes for an great presentation. Found this recipe in The Gourmet Cookbook.

ROASTED RED PEPPER HUMMUS WITH PINE NUTS
I tend to make most things with less olive oil than the original recipe calls for, and this hummus is no exception. My hummus is a bit thicker than the hummus you might find in a Mediterranean restaurant, but I've found that the addition of a freshly roasted red bell pepper and as much of the "juice" as you can preserve from the roasting process goes a long way in recreating some of the creaminess of a hummus dripping with olive oil, and with far fewer calories.

Steps:
- Note: *I use anywhere from 12-15 cloves, but your mileage may vary. It's also good to keep in mind that raw garlic takes a while to fully flavor a dish, so be careful of relying too much on that first taste. You just might end up adding more garlic when you don't actually need it (ha, as if there was such a thing!). When I make my hummus and serve it on the same day, I usually back off on the fresh garlic and increase the garlic powder, which gives more of an immediate flavor.
- If you're roasting your own peppers, throw them in the broiler now. Broil peppers until they're burnt to a crisp. Use tongs to place pepper in sealed plastic container and steam for 5-10 minutes (the longer you wait, the easier it will be to get that skin off). Carefully peel away blackened skin, then remove stem and seeds while preserving as much of the liquid inside the pepper as you can.
- Toast pine nuts in a hot, dry saucepan. These two things (broiling peppers and toasting pine nuts) can both be done while you're combining the rest of the ingredients, but be sure to keep an eye on the pine nuts, as they go from raw to perfectly toasted to burnt to a crisp in a matter of seconds.
- Combine garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, cumin, coriander, paprika, garlic powder, crushed red pepper, and cayenne in food processor and blend until smooth.
- Add roasted, peeled peppers** and as much of their liquid as you managed to save to food processor and blend into garbanzo bean mixture.
- Slowly drizzle olive oil into mixture until you get the consistency you're looking for.
- Taste the hummus. At this point, it usually needs another squirt of lemon juice and a half pinch of salt to really solidify the flavor.
- Garnish with paprika and toasted pine nuts and serve with vegetables, crackers, baguette slices, or pita
- (serving size is approximately 1/3 c).
Tips:
- Use dried chickpeas for the most flavorful hummus. Soaking them overnight before cooking will help them cook more evenly.
- If you don't have time to soak the chickpeas overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them in water for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
- Be sure to drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly before cooking them. This will help to remove any impurities and ensure that the hummus is smooth.
- Don't overcook the chickpeas. They should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape.
- Use a food processor or blender to puree the chickpeas until they are very smooth. This will help to create a creamy hummus.
- Add the tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and cumin to the food processor or blender and process until well combined.
- Taste the hummus and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more lemon juice, salt, or cumin.
- Serve the hummus immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later.

Hummus is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a dip, a spread, or a sandwich filling. It's also a good source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make your own delicious hummus at home.
