SPICY GARLIC HUMMUS



Spicy Garlic Hummus image

I have tried a lot of hummus recipes, and this one is a combination of a few of my favorites, and is now the only one I use. I grow my own little Super Hot Chili Peppers and so that is what I use, but you can substitute any pepper you like, or use hot pepper flakes. I like a lot of garlic and a bit of a kick, but this recipe is easily alterable to your own tastes so adjust it as you see fit. I like my hummus thick so I usually skip the water. Another nice variation is to add a bit of red, green, and yellow bell peppers. It makes the hummus really pretty! Any hummus lover will tell you that the spread can be used so many ways. My favorite uses for this is as a vegetable dip or as a sandwich spread in a whole wheat veggie wrap. Yum!

Provided by Sesquipedalian Sapp

Categories     Beans

Time 25m

Yield 6 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans, rinsed
1/4 cup tahini paste (100% ground hulled sesame paste)
2 large garlic cloves, roasted and mashed
1/2 cup lime juice (approximately 2 limes, juiced)
1/2 cup warm water
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (optional)
1/4 cup sun-dried tomato
1/3 cup roasted red pepper
10 fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Cut off both ends of each clove of garlic and remove outer layer of skin. In a toaster oven or conventional oven roast garlic for 10-15 minutes at 350 degrees. Garlic will be slightly golden and a little soft.
  • In food processor, blend until smooth lime juice, tahini, water, garlic, basil, and pepper (to taste).
  • Add garbanzo beans gradually and blend for several minutes until mixture is a smooth, thick paste.
  • Add roasted red peppers and sun dried tomatoes and process again until well combined.
  • If necessary, stop processor and scrape sides with a spatula. (Hummus will thicken if refrigerated, so add more water--up to an additional 1/2 cup-if it seems too thick).
  • Ideally, hummus be served at room temperature within an hour or two of making. To store, refrigerate for up to 1 week in a covered container.
  • Garnish with drizzled olive oil and slices of roasted red peppers.
  • Surround with warm pita wedges or crackers and serve with fresh vegetables.
