Hummus 1.2

Hummus is good, to make a delicious batch simply read further with a food processor or a spoon and a lot of ambition.

1 15 oz. can of Garbanzo beans (Goya Organic are smooshiest)

1 Fresh lemon

1 Hearty Garlic Clove minced

3-4 tbsp Tahini

1 tbsp Olive Oil

1 tsp Salt

¼ tsp Ground White Pepper

¼ tsp Ground Cumin

For a thick texture, almost peanut butter texture, strain the beans and pour them all into the food processor. Juice the lemon and pour that in their too. Run processor on high. Almost immediately the beans get too thick to flow. Trickle olive oil in there for like 3 or 4 seconds, that should do it. Rub lemon peels on hands. Mmmmmm, right? Remove the lid of the processor, add minced garlic and tahini. If the tahini is too thick, only add three tablespoons. Too much tahini is embarrassing. Replace processor lid and run on low. While it’s running, slowly dump the olive oil through the glory hole. A slow and consistent pour adds a frothy fluffiness to the batch. Without any grace, dump the salt, pepper, and cumin.

Hummus

1 15 oz. can of Garbanzo beans (Goya Organic if you can)

1 Fresh lemon

1 Hearty Garlic Clove minced

3-4 tbsp Tahini

1 tbsp Olive Oil

1 tsp Salt

¼ tsp Ground White Pepper

¼ tsp Ground Cumin

Pour entire can of beans into food processor, water too. Juice lemon into empty can. Strain seeds with a fork and pour juice in with beans. Run processor on high for a cigarette’s worth of time. Return and rub lemon peels on hands. They smell like skittles, right? Remove the lid of the processor, add minced garlic and tahini. If the tahini is too thick, only add three tablespoons. Too much tahini is embarrassing. Replace processor lid and run on low. While it’s running, slowly dump the olive oil through the glory hole. A slow and consistent pour adds a frothy fluffiness to the batch. Without any grace, dump the salt, pepper, and cumin. Put pitas in an upright toaster. When the pitas are toasted, turn off processor and begin consumption.
