Welcome to the channel and introduction.

Gather ingredients: canned garbanzo beans, tahini, chili flakes, salt, crushed garlic, sweet candied jalapenos, fresh lemon, olive oil, and basil.

Prepare to remove skins from chickpeas by filling a large bowl with warm water.

Strain the chickpeas from the can and place them in the bowl of warm water.

Using fingers, roll the chickpeas in the water to remove skins; some skins will float to the top.

Discard the skins and set aside the chickpeas.

In the food processor, add about 1/3 cup of tahini and mix well to combine the oils and paste.

Squeeze in the juice of one lemon and add crushed garlic and a pinch of salt.

Pulse the tahini mixture until combined.

Add half of the chickpeas to the food processor and blend on high for about 1-2 minutes.

While blending, drizzle in olive oil and add a little water to keep the mixture smooth.

Once the first half of chickpeas is blended, add the remaining chickpeas and more olive oil, plus a bit more water and salt if needed.

Blend until creamy and smooth, then add in 1/4 cup of sweet candied jalapenos and blend again.

Taste the hummus to check for seasoning and adjust if necessary.

Transfer the hummus to a serving dish and create a well in the center.

Drizzle olive oil into the well and sprinkle chili flakes on top for garnish.

Add fresh basil sprigs around the edges for color and aroma.
