Roasted Garlic Paprika Hummus

Yields12 ServingsTotal Time12 mins

Cooking beans from scratch will add about 1 hr and 40 minutes to your total time. However that is cooking and soaking time so you can do something else during that time.

Ingredients-
 1 cup dry garbanzo beans or 2 cans garbanzo beans
 7 cups water (only if using dried beans)
 6 garlic cloves, sliced
 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (1/2 tbsp for garlic and 1 1/2 tbsp for hummus)
 ½ cup tahini
 1 ½ tsp salt
 ¼ cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
 1 tbsp paprika
 a dash of cayenne (optional for added spice)
 3 tbsp chickpea water (reserved from boiling chickpeas or from the can)
Recipe-
1

If using a pressure cooker, place dry chickpea in pressure cooker, rinse and drain. Add water, bring to a boil, turn off heat, and let soak for 1 hour. Then secure lid and bring to a steam over high heat. Once it begins steaming, reduce heat to medium and cook for 30 minutes. After that, depressurize your pressure cooker. Drain the water reserving 3 tablespoons of the water for the hummus.

2

If using canned beans, skip the first step, open and drain your cans, reserving 3 tablespoons of the water for the hummus.

3

Peal and thinly slice garlic. Heat 1/2 tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium heat. Once hot, at the garlic to the pan and sauté till it browns.

4

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend till smooth. Use a tamper while blending to move things around more efficiently. Once fully blended; transfer to a tupperware; store in the fridge; serve with crackers, pita or veggies; and enjoy! Homemade hummus is said to last for about a week, however mine usually lasts a week and a half.
