Categories     Appetizers

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups cooked chickpeas, peeled (from 1 to 1 1/4 cup dry chickpeas or from quality canned chickpeas. See recipe notes for more instructions on cooking and peeling chickpeas)
1 to 2 garlic cloves, minced
3 to 4 ice cubes
1/3 cup (79 grams) tahini paste
½ tsp kosher salt
Juice of 1 lemon
Hot water (if needed)
Early Harvest Greek extra virgin olive oil
Sumac

Steps:

  • Add chickpeas and minced garlic to the bowl of a food processor. Puree until a smooth, powder-like mixture forms.
  • While processor is running, add ice cubes, tahini, salt, and lemon juice. Blend for about 4 minutes or so. Check, and if the consistency is too thick still, run processor and slowly add a little hot water. Blend until you reach desired silky smooth consistency.
  • Spread in a serving bowl and add a generous drizzle of Early Harvest EVOO. Add a few chickpeas to the middle, if you like. Sprinkle sumac on top. Enjoy with warm pita wedges and your favorite veggies.

MEDITERRANEAN HUMMUS APPETIZER



Mediterranean Hummus Appetizer image

Inspired by Zea's Hummus Appetizer Platter. Refrigerate time not included. (So good I strongly suggest doubling the hummus recipe since you'll already have on hand the toppings.) Note: I made a remarkable discovery. Adding lemon zest makes for extraordinary so I added it as an optional ingredient. Update: Substituting about half of the olive oil with chickpea juice makes for a fluffier hummus. Note: Since originally posting this recipe, I've come to realize that boiling your chickpeas for about 5 minutes makes for a better end product. Make sure you reserve the juice should you want a thinner hummus. Should you cook your own chickpeas from dried, use 1 1/2 cups drained chickpeas to equal the amount in a 15 ounce can.

  • Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then add to the bowl of a food processor. Measure in the tahini, minced garlic, sun-dried tomato, Kalamata olives, feta cheese, basil, lemon juice, and olive oil.
  • Process the ingredients until blended smooth. You may need a little more or less olive oil depending on the desired consistency. I began with 1/4 cup, and added two more tablespoons.
  • When the hummus is smooth, use a spatula to spread on a rimmed plate or shallow bowl. Swirl a spoon over the top to create ridges, then drizzle a little extra olive oil on top. Sprinkle with paprika, and top with chopped sun-dried tomatoes, olives, basil, and feta cheese (if desired). Serve with your favorite dippables.

  • First, start by peeling the chickpeas by pinching them between your finger and thumb. This step is optional but I highly recommend it to get the smoothest hummus.
  • Place the peeled chickpeas in the food processor, add in the tahini, olive oil, water, garlic cloves, paprika, salt, and the juice of half a lemon. Process until smooth. If the hummus is too thick for your liking add 1 tsp water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
  • Spread the hummus on a plate and top it with the optional toppings. Drizzle some good tasting olive oil and serve with flat bread or pita chips.
