5-MINUTE HUMMUS

Michael Solomonov and Steven Cook of the Philadelphia restaurant Zahav found success with their hummus recipe, but in their second book, "Israeli Soul," the two came up with this smart version, done in a fraction of the time of the original. It's just as satisfying, and packed with tahini flavor, a given since it calls for a whole 16-ounce jar. The end result is nutty and smooth, and topped with roasted vegetables, a worthy weeknight meal.

Time 5m

Yield 4 generous cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 garlic clove
Juice of 1 lemon, about 1/4 cup
1 (16-ounce) jar tahini
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 to 1 1/2 cups ice water
2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed

Steps:

  • Drop the 1/4 garlic clove into a food processor and add the lemon juice. Pour the tahini on top, making sure to scrape it all out of the container, and add the salt and cumin. Process until the mixture looks peanut-buttery, about 1 minute. Stream in the ice water, a little at a time, with the motor running. Process just until the mixture is smooth and creamy and lightens to the color of dry sand.
  • Add the chickpeas and process for about 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl as you go, until the chickpeas are completely blended and the hummus is smooth and uniform in color.

BIG-BATCH MAKE-AHEAD-AND-FREEZE HUMMUS



Big-Batch Make-Ahead-and-Freeze Hummus image

Meal-prep hummus? Why not?! This recipe makes a huge batch of classic hummus that you can keep in the freezer until you're ready to enjoy. So easy!

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 cups cooked chickpeas (or 3 15-ounce cans chickpeas, drained [but reserve the liquid])
1 cup tahini
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 2-3 juicy large lemons)
5 medium cloves garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (plus more to taste if desired)
1 teaspoon ground cumin (optional)
1/3 cup - 1 cup water or chickpea brine

Steps:

  • To the bowl of a large food processor fitted with the "S" blade, add the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, cumin if using, and 1/3 cup water or chickpea brine. Puree until smooth. If the hummus is too thick, gradually add more water or chickpea brine until the hummus has reached the desired consistency (I like a nice spreadable yet peak-and-valley consistency like buttercream). Taste and add more salt if desired.
  • To freeze, divide between freezer-safe containers. Top with air-tight lids and add labels (key if you're forgetful like me).
  • To thaw, transfer from freezer to refrigerator. The hummus should be thawed in about 24 hours. If the thawed hummus seems too grainy, puree in a high-speed blender with a tablespoon or two of water until smooth.
  • Keeps well in the freezer for up to 3 months.

MONICA & JAMIE'S HUMMAS

Jamie and I own a graphic design business. One of our clients owns a Persian restaurant with a terrific Hummas appetizer. This inspired us to try our own hand at it. After trying many recipies, we've created this version with an array of the ingredients we liked best from what we tried. Here's my recipe, not too bad if I do say so myself!

Categories     Spreads

Time 15m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (19 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained (but save a little juice to add)
3 tablespoons tahini (sesame-seed paste, can't be substituted)
3 tablespoons virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 garlic cloves
1 tablespoon heavy cream
1 tablespoon orange juice
1 tablespoon honey
pita bread
fresh basil
thinly sliced onion, soaked in water (to take some of the bite away)

Steps:

  • In a food processor or blender add the tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, heavy cream, orange juice and honey. Blend. Add garbanzo beans and blend until really smooth. Add salt to taste. Refridgerate an hour or two and then serve on warm pita bread topped with basil and onion slices. Makes a nice breakfast snack or appetizer too. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use dried chickpeas: Dried chickpeas are more flavorful and economical than canned chickpeas. If you use dried chickpeas, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking.
  • Cook the chickpeas properly: Chickpeas should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked chickpeas will be mushy.
  • Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender is the best way to get a smooth and creamy hummus. If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can mash the chickpeas by hand, but it will take longer and the hummus may not be as smooth.
  • Add tahini: Tahini is a sesame seed paste that gives hummus its characteristic flavor. Be sure to use good quality tahini.
  • Season the hummus to taste: Hummus should be seasoned with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, garlic powder, or paprika.
  • Serve the hummus with pita bread, vegetables, or crackers: Hummus is a versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, snack, or main course. It's also a great addition to sandwiches and wraps.

Conclusion:

Hummus is a delicious, healthy, and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great source of protein, fiber, and vitamins. Hummus can be made with a variety of ingredients, so you can easily customize it to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a healthy and tasty snack or appetizer, give hummus a try.
