Truly Jordanian Hummus image

Having just moved back from Jordan, i had to perfect a recipe for hummus, the fast food of Jordan. I finally got the texture righ even while using canned chick peas. Two secrets- finding the right brand of chickpeas and adding some ice to the final mix for a smooth texture (this is the authentic trick i brought back with me ). Hummus restaurants use citric acid instead of lemon juice, but lemon juice is always available. I use storebought bottled lemon juice.

Time 15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (400 g) cans chickpeas, I used California Garden
1/2 cup tahini
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, finely ground
1/2 cup ice (more or less)

Steps:

  • Empty two cans chickpeas onto medium saucepan with juices. Cover with water and heat to a boil to soften beans.
  • Drain beans well. Put in food processor and mix until fairly smooth. Scrape as necessary.
  • Add tahini, salt, garlic powder and black pepper.
  • Process until incorporated.
  • Scrape down bowl and add lemon juice. Process again.
  • Add olive oil and process until smooth.
  • Finally add ice and continue processing to a very smooth texture without becoming runny.
  • Serve on a plate with more olive oil. Sprinkle with paprika. Serve with warmed pita bread.

This recipe is a waste of time. The hummus was watery and tasteless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my hummus turned out grainy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This hummus is a bit bland for my taste. I'll try adding some more lemon juice and garlic next time.

I found that this recipe made too much hummus for me. I ended up freezing some of it for later.

This hummus is a little spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time, I'll use less cayenne pepper.

I'm allergic to chickpeas, but I was able to make this recipe using white beans instead. It turned out great!

I love that this recipe uses tahini instead of mayonnaise. It makes the hummus so much healthier.
