Bacon And Houmous Butties Hummus Recipes

CHOCOLATE HUMMUS WITH CANDIED BACON

Steps:

• For the hummus: In the bowl of a food processor blend the cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond extract, cinnamon, salt and garbanzo beans. Add a little bit of water to adjust the consistency if needed.
• For the bacon: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Cook the bacon to desired doneness in the microwave or on the stovetop. Sprinkle the hot bacon with brown sugar then bake for 5 minutes.

BOILED PEANUT HUMMUS WITH COUNTRY BACON AND FETA CHEESE

Steps:

• For the hummus: Set the peanuts on a baking sheet lined with paper towels and allow to air dry for 30 minutes.
• Transfer to a clean kitchen towel and roll the peanuts around while applying light pressure with the palm of your hand. This will remove some of the skins off of the peanuts.
• Place the peanuts, lemon juice, tahini, parsley, coriander, cumin, paprika and garlic in a food processor. Process for 1 minute and then, with the motor still running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. The hummus should have a smooth, loosely spreadable consistency. Adjust with a tablespoon of hot water if needed. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to your serving bowl of choice. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, the crumbled bacon and feta cheese.
• For the toast: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lay your thinly sliced bread pieces on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with the Parmesan. Bake until golden brown and fully crisped, 5 to 8 minutes. Serve alongside your delicious hummus!

BASIC HUMMUS

Steps:

• The night before, put the chickpeas in a large bowl and cover them with cold water at least twice their volume. Leave to soak overnight.
• The next day, drain the chickpeas. Place a medium saucepan over high heat and add the drained chickpeas and baking soda. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the water and bring to a boil. Cook, skimming off any foam and any skins that float to the surface. The chickpeas will need to cook between 20 and 40 minutes, depending on the type and freshness, sometimes even longer. Once done, they should be very tender, breaking up easily when pressed between your thumb and finger, almost but not quite mushy.
• Drain the chickpeas. You should have roughly 3 cups/600 g now. Place the chickpeas in a food processor and process until you get a stiff paste. Then, with the machine still running, add the tahini paste, lemon juice, garlic, and 1½ teaspoons salt. Finally, slowly drizzle in the iced water and allow it to mix for about 5 minutes, until you get a very smooth and creamy paste.
• Transfer the hummus to a bowl, cover the surface with plastic wrap, and let it rest for at least 30 minutes. If not using straightaway, refrigerate until needed. Make sure to take it out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before serving.
