🥙 Hummus

🛒 The ingredients

Start by draining the liquid from your canned chickpeas and rinsing them under cold water.
As you rinse them, you want to be a bit rough and get rid of the skins. This is VERY important. The more the skins, the less smooth your hummus is.
Add everything to your food processor (or blender) and process (or blend).
- I like to add the ice cubes incrementally to both introduce water and cool things down.
You'll need some patience here as it'll take a couple of minutes (depending on how powerful your machine is) for everything to come together and reach a smooth consistency.
Taste as you and adjust the lemon juice, olive oil and salt.
Profit?

It is super important that you remove as much of the skins as possible while you rinse your chickpeas.
Your hummus will probably thicken up a bit in the fridge so maybe account for that before you finish.

^ What's this? Me stressing once again that you need to get rid of those skins. skins === bad.

^ Things will start off like this and take a bit before it all comes together.

^ Trust the process and you'll reach this smooth consistency. At this point, you can adjust for taste but don't over-mix.

^ You can serve as-is with Olive Oil or mix things up like I did here with some grilled chicken!

Enjoy! ^ _ ^
