SUN-DRIED TOMATO HUMMUS--VEGAN & NO TAHINI



Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus--vegan & No Tahini image

Found this recipe in Taste of Home. Placing here for safe-keeping since I haven't tried yet! I'm thinking it doesn't need the extra olive oil since the sun-dried tomatoes are not drained. When I try it, I will probably leave that out. Todd Schmeling posted this in Taste of Home. Let me know if you try this and like it! :O)

1 (7 ounce) jar sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil
2/3 cup water

Tips:

- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will directly impact the taste of your hummus, so use the best you can find. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and free of blemishes. - Roast the tomatoes until they are dry and slightly caramelized: This process concentrates their flavor and gives the hummus a delicious smoky taste. - Use a high-quality tahini: Tahini is a key ingredient in hummus, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a tahini that is made from 100% sesame seeds and has a smooth, creamy texture. - Season the hummus to taste: Hummus should be flavorful but not overpowering. Start with a basic seasoning of salt, pepper, and cumin, and then adjust to your liking. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, garlic powder, or onion powder. - Let the hummus chill before serving: This allows the flavors to meld and the hummus to thicken up. Serve the hummus with pita bread, crackers, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Sun-dried tomato hummus is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for parties and potlucks, and it's also a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. With its rich, smoky flavor and creamy texture, sun-dried tomato hummus is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
