The best hummus recipe I ever had. A simple authentic tasting hummus is served with toasted pita wedges brushed with olive oil and seasoned with rosemary. A beautiful dish that goes well on an appetizer buffet. Ingredients:
3 cloves garlic |
2 teaspoons coarse salt |
1 (19 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained |
3 tablespoons tahini (sesame-seed paste) |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 tablespoon honey |
2 tablespoons water, or as needed |
1/4 cup olive oil, divided |
6 pita bread rounds |
salt to taste |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary |
Directions:
1. Mash garlic with the salt in a small bowl. Place into a blender or food processor along with the garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, honey, and enough water to cover the beans. Process until smooth. Spoon into a serving dish, and drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the top.
2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush pita breads with remaining olive oil, and cut into wedges. Season with salt and fresh rosemary. Bake for 5 minutes in the preheated oven. Cool, and serve with hummus.
