Fork
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/3 cup Tahini
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh juice of 1 lemon
- 2 cloves garlic ( adding more will be very strong, so stick to 2; but if you are a garlic lover like me, use a lot)
- 2-4 tablespoons water

- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 can 15 fl oz Garbanzo beans, rinsed, drain and pat sry with paper towel
Add Tahini, water, olive oil, salt, garlic and lemon juice in the food processor. Adding them first make it easier to coat with the beans. Puree until smooth.
Add in the drained Garbanzo/chickpea. Puree until creamy pausinf halfway to scrape the sides of the bowl. Process until smooth. It it looks thick, add in water.
Taste and season with additional salt, cumin, and/or lemon juice if needed.

CAN I FREEZE HUMMUS?
Yes you can freeze hummus up to 3 months, but you have to freeze it in smaller batch. If you can try to consume it quickly as freezing changes the texture and taste of the Hummus
Make sure that the container is safe to prevent flavor contamination from the surrounding freezer odors.
Add a small amount thin layer of olive oil on top. Don’t add too much that the oil will change the flavor of the hummus when thawed.
Thaw and stir when ready to consume.
