Homemade hummus is easy to make and tastes much better than anything you can buy at the store. You will need tahini, a paste made from sesame seeds. Buy it or make it yourself. Here’s our homemade tahini recipe, which I highly recommend for the best homemade hummus! To leave it out, add more olive oil.
Ingredient:
- 1 (15oz) can chickpeas, drained or 1 ½ cups (250g) cooked chickpeas
- 1/4 cup (60ml) fresh lemon juice, 1 large lemon
- 1/4 cup (60ml) well-stirred tahini, try our homemade tahini recipe
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt to taste
- 2 to 3 tablespoons (45ml) cold water or aquafaba
- Dash ground paprika, sumac, or Za’atar for serving
