Tips & Techniques

  • Hummus
  • Glorious Garbanzos

    Garbanzo beans are loaded with fiber—the soluble kind. Add them to your diet slowly so you can get used to the added fiber.

  • Did You Know...

    This great-tasting cocktail dip began to show up at parties in the 1970s, perhaps spurred by the growing vegetarian movement or by American travels to the Middle East.

Ingredients

  • 1  can (15 oz) Progresso® chick peas (garbanzo beans), drained, 1/3 cup liquid reserved
  • 3  tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/3  cup sesame seed
  • 1  garlic clove, crushed
  • 1/2  teaspoon salt
  • Chopped fresh parsley
  • Pita bread wedges, crackers or raw vegetables for dipping, if desired

Directions

  1. 1In blender or food processor, place beans, reserved bean liquid, lemon juice, sesame seed, garlic and salt. Cover; blend on high speed, stopping blender occasionally to scrape sides if necessary, until uniform consistency.
  2. 2Spoon dip into serving dish. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with pita bread wedges.

yummy recipe. you can add whatever seasonings you like (pepper, sage, saffron, etc). It has a creamy texture, not stiff like store-bought. My dad had real hummus in Baghdad and Kuwait in 1991.

It has too much salt. I usually rinse the beans to remove the salt. In this recipe, I wouldn't add salt since it says to save the liquid. Adding seasoning without salt is healthier for you.
