Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups canned white beans (cannellini or navy beans), rinsed and drained
- 2 tablespoons tahini (sesame seed paste)
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large clove garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 2 tablespoons ice water
- 0.25 teaspoons paprika or sumac (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon extra drizzle of olive oil (for garnish)
Instructions
Place the rinsed and drained white beans into a food processor or blender.
Add the tahini, fresh lemon juice, olive oil, peeled garlic clove, ground cumin, and sea salt to the food processor.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the processor as needed.
Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, and blend again to achieve a light and fluffy texture. Adjust the consistency to your preference by adding a bit more water if needed.
Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning by adding more salt or lemon juice, if desired.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and use the back of a spoon to create a small swirl in the surface.
Drizzle the hummus with the extra olive oil and sprinkle with paprika or sumac.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a vibrant finish.
Serve immediately with pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
