Hummus is a traditional middle eastern appetizer with different variations from country to country. Here is my award winning adaptation of the recipe.
two cups cooked chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
1/3 cup tahini (sesame paste)
1/2 lemon, its juice
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
salt and pepper to taste
reserved cooking liquid
olive oil and red paprika for sprinkling before serving
Blend all ingredients in powerful blender with enough of the cooking liquid to have a thick but smooth paste. Serve on a platter, sprinkling with olive oil and paprika and garnishing with toasted pita bread, olives, or vegetable sticks.
