Garlicky Hummus Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wrap garlic heads in aluminum foil. Cook in oven until very soft, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven, and allow to cool in foil.
• When cool, cut each head in half horizontally, and squeeze cloves into the bowl of a food processor. Add remaining ingredients, and puree until smooth. Add up to 2 tablespoons water if mixture is too thick.

Steps:

• Pour all garbanzo beans into the bowl of a food processor; pulse several times to slightly break some of the beans. Add garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, cumin, basil, salt, cayenne pepper, and ground black pepper; blend until the beans are beginning to look like large crumbs, about 1 minute.
• With the food processor running, gradually stream reserved liquid from garbanzo beans, olive oil, and sesame oil into the beans mixture; continue to blend until all liquids are integrated with the garbanzo bean mixture into a smooth hummus.

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:

• 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:

• 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:

• 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 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:

• 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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place garlic on aluminum foil and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until jammy.
• In a small saucepan on low heat, combine the rest of your olive oil with your rosemary. Bring to a low bubble and take off the heat, allowing the flavors to marry. Discard rosemary stalks.
• In a blender, combine your chickpeas, tahini, half the rosemary olive oil and squeeze out your jammy garlic flesh.
• Gradually add in the rest of the olive oil as the blender is on, looking for that smooth and creamy consistency. Season accordingly with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
