Ingredients

    Makes about 1 2/3 cups

    1 head garlic
    1 19-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed, or 2 cups cooked chickpeas
    2 tbsp lemon juice
    1 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
    1 tbsp tahini (sesame paste)
    2 tbsp water

    Optional Items:
    2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley plus a sprig for garnish
    Salt to taste
    Paprika for garnish




Directions

1. Pre-heat oven to 425° F. Remove the loose papery outside skin from the garlic head without separating the cloves. Slice off the top ½ inch and toss. Wrap the garlic head in a small square of foil and roast until the garlic is very soft, about 40 minutes. Unwrap and cool slightly. Separate the cloves and peel.
2. Puree the garlic, chickpeas, lemon juice, soy sauce, tahini and water in a food processor. Add more or less water as necessary to make a fairly firm dip.
3. Transfer to a small serving bowl, stir in parsley and season with salt. Garnish with a sprig of parsley and a sprinkling of paprika.
