Hummus, one of the most popular appetizers of the Middle East, is popular all over the world due to its very healthy nature. It is a very easy and practical recipe made with very little ingredients. Naturally vegan and gluten free. The two main ingredients of hummus are cooked chickpeas and tahini. If you cook chickpeas and use freshly baked chickpeas, your hummus will be tastier and fresher. But you can also use canned chickpeas. If you are going to use canned chickpeas, wash the chickpeas very well and separate the shells. Anyway, the skins will come out as you wash the chickpeas. If you cook the chickpeas, you can easily remove their skin while they are hot. The shell of chickpeas is both tasteless and unnecessary because it causes gas, it is not very digestible.
We process cooked chickpeas in a food processor, add tahini and mix them in the food processor. Then we add garlic, salt, cumin and lemon juice. Cumin is optional but you should definitely add lemon juice, garlic and salt. We also add water to make the texture of hummus fluid and soft. I've written the estimated measurements below, but please add ingredients slowly and taste it and adjust the quantity according to your tastebuds. See the details below
