How to Make Hummus (Best Homemade Hummus Recipe)

Soak chickpeas overnight and cook for a couple of hours, or use canned chickpeas.

If using canned chickpeas, add hot water and baking soda to remove the skins.

Add peeled chickpeas to a food processor.

Add minced garlic to the food processor.

Process until the mixture is a powdery smooth consistency without chunks.

Add ice to the chickpea mixture in the food processor.

Add tahini, salt, and citrus while the food processor is running.

Blend until creamy and smooth, adding hot water a little at a time if the mixture is too thick.

Plate the hummus and create a pit in the center.

Drizzle extra virgin olive oil into the pit.

Sprinkle a dash of sumac on top.
