Directions:
- In a food processor, gradually combine the mashed garlic, garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, 1/2 cup water, and olive oil.
- Process until smooth.
- Add salt, starting at a half a teaspoon, to taste.
- Spoon into serving dish and sprinkle with toasted pine nuts and chopped parsley.
- TIP: Once you’ve added all the main ingredients, you have a basic hummus that is good all on its own. Now that you have your basic hummus you may wish to go nuts with some flavor! I personally like to add two or three chipotle peppers (a jalapeno is incredibly good, and quite spicy), some paprika for color, and a dash of onion powder. Sometimes I just add chili powder if I’m lazy. Chopped scallions can also be quite charming, as well as fresh or dried red bell pepper. Experiment with dill too. I’ve had great curry hummus, and fresh veggies like radish can sometimes be surprisingly good.
- Give it a try. You can try lots of seasonings this way, and you’ll surely find something you adore.
