Introduction

A basic spicy hummus. A basic spicy hummus.
Number of Servings: 64

Ingredients

    3.5 cups of rehydrated garbanzo beans
    4 T tahini
    4 T lemon juice
    2 cloves garlic
    1 t cayenne pepper
    1 t ground cumin
    2 t salt (feel free to use less)
    Food processor

Directions

Rehydrate beans in your favorite method, either pressure cooker or soaking overnight. Put everything in a food processor, and pulse until it comes together. I have found that crushing the garlic beforehand really helps blend it in smoothly. Once it begins to form a paste, turn it on and let it run for a few minutes. It will start to get fluffy and thick, like mashed potatoes.

This is a very creamy recipe, and a suitable substitute for spreads on sandwiches.
