Classic Hummus Recipe: Creamy Dream in Every Bite

 


The Deliciously Complex Origins of Hummus: A Journey Through History and Culture

Pinpointing the exact origin of hummus, like many beloved dishes, is a culinary expedition with several intriguing stops. While claims from various corners of the Middle East abound, the evidence whispers in different directions, leaving us with a tapestry of possibilities rather than a definitive answer.

Evolution of a Dish:

The Tahini Twist: While tahini, made from sesame seeds, was used in the region for centuries, its incorporation into hummus seems to have emerged somewhere between the 17th and 18th centuries. Some culinary historians point to Damascus as the birthplace of this innovation, marking a shift toward the flavor profile we know and love today.

Classic Hummus Recipe: Creamy Dream in Every Bite

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups dried chickpeas, soaked overnight or canned and drained
  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup water (optional)
  • Paprika, for garnish (optional)
  • Whole chickpeas, for garnish (optional)

Step-by-step Instructions:

  1. Prep the chickpeas: If using dried chickpeas, rinse them thoroughly and soak in water overnight. Drain and rinse again before proceeding. If using canned chickpeas, simply rinse and drain

  2. Blend the base: In a food processor, combine the tahini, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

  3. Add the chickpeas: Add half of the chickpeas to the food processor and blend until smooth. Scrape down the sides again and add the remaining chickpeas

  4. Creamy perfection: With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the hummus reaches the desired consistency. If it's too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until it's nice and creamy.

  5. Taste and adjust: Scrape the hummus into a serving bowl and taste. Add more lemon juice, salt, or cumin to your liking.

  6. Garnish and serve: Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with paprika and whole chickpeas (optional), and enjoy with your favorite dippers!
