Garlic Hummus Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Cut off the very top of the garlic clove (about 1/4") so that the tops of most of the cloves are exposed slightly. Coat with a little olive oil and wrap securely in tin foil. Roast garlic in oven for 1 hour. Remove and allow to cool.
• Using your fingers, squeeze the soft, roasted garlic out of each clove into food processor. Rinse and drain cooked or canned chickpeas. Add them, and all other ingredients, to the food processor and blend until completely smooth.
• Scrape ingredients off sides of food processor to make sure it blends evenly. If you find that the hummus is too thick, you can add additional olive oil at this time. Add it very slowly, allowing the mixture to combine fully before adding more liquid.
• Serve at room temperature with crudites, warm pita or crackers.
• Optional: Sprinkle with chopped parsley or paprika before serving.

Steps:

• Combine all but the last 2 ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
• Stir in the tahini and garlic.
• Chill in the refrigerator and serve with pita triangles, veggies, crackers, or on a sandwich. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine garbanzo beans, garlic, lemon juice, tahini, water, olive oil, and salt in the bowl of a food processor; process until smooth.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in food processor and blend until smooth, adding more lemon if necessary to obtain desired consistency. The blending can take as long as 3-4 minutes Be patient it comes out better!
• I have made this a lot lately and I have come to learn that I must follow the directions EXACTLY especially with the Tahini paste.
• Refrigerate for several hours. May be made a week ahead of time.
• Serve with Pita Bread or Pita Chips or your fingers. They all taste great with it!

Steps:

• Turn on the food processor fitted with the steel blade and drop the garlic down the feed tube; process until it's minced. Add the rest of the ingredients to the food processor and process until the hummus is coarsely pureed. Taste, for seasoning, and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Thoroughly rinse the chickpeas in a colander under cold running water. Tip into the large bowl of a food processor along with 60ml of the oil and blitz until almost smooth. Add the garlic, lemon and tahini along with 30ml water. Blitz again for about 5 mins, or until the hummus is smooth and silky.
• Add 20ml more water, a little at a time, if it looks too thick. Season and transfer to a bowl. Swirl the top of the hummus with the back of a dessert spoon and drizzle over the remaining oil. Serve with crunchy crudités and toasted pitta bread, if you like.

Steps:

• Boil the garbanzo beans until the skins come off. Remove the skins, drain.
• Combine all ingredients in a food processor.
• Blend until smooth adding small amounts of oil and water until desired consistency is achieved.
• Add more lemon or tahini if needed.
• Garnish with pine nuts and more oil!
• Eat with fresh vegetables or pita chips.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Process garbanzo beans, tahini, chili pepper, garlic, and lemon juice in a food processor or blender (I use a mini-chopper) until smooth.
• Add water as needed to achieve the consistency you prefer.
• Place mixture into a glass bowl.
• Stir in cumin, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt and black pepper.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours.
• The flavor improves greatly if given this time to develop.

Steps:

• If you need to roast the garlic: Cut off the point/top of the bulb of garlic to expose the tops of the cloves inside (cut as close to the top as you can). Sprinkle some olive oil and salt over top, rub it in a little so that each clove gets a little oil on it. Place the bulbs into an oven proof dish and wrap snugly with foil (or maybe you have a garlic baker, even better!). Roast in a 375 degree oven for about 40 minutes. Tops should be nicely brown but not burnt. Let cool.
• Squeeze out the roasted garlic into a food processor or blender. Add the rest of the ingredients except the water and mix very well. Start adding the water, a bit at a time until you get the consistency you like. Adjust salt & pepper to your tastes, and you're done!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Slice the top off each head of garlic. Drizzle the cut ends with 1 tablespoon olive oil and wrap in foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove and let sit until cool enough to handle. Turn on the broiler.
• Reserve liquid from chickpeas. Rinse and drain chickpeas; transfer to a blender.
• Add 1/2 of the reserved chickpea liquid to the blender with lemon juice and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Squeeze in roasted garlic from 2 of the heads. Blend until creamy, adding more chickpea liquid if needed.
• Split pita rounds and cut into quarters. Place on a baking sheet.
• Place under the preheated broiler until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Place hummus into a bowl. Make a well in the center and squeeze roasted garlic from the remaining head into the well. Sprinkle with paprika. Serve with pitas.
