The Secret to “bought” style Hummus Recipe (Not the crappy ones, but like Sabra Hummus)

I wrote an extensive post about a  Hummus  recipe way back, but after I made it a few times, while it turned out nice,  it did not taste like my favorite  Hummus  brand, Sabra.

So it turns out that the secret is in the order of which you prepare the hummus. Follow the Recipe carefully:

Ingredients:

The trick is to start making Tahini Sauce.  In a coffe cup put the Tahini paste, add a little water (i mean little) and start mixing with a teaspoon.  When it hardens add more water and keep going like that until it has a fluid but thick  consistency.  At this point squeeze a whole lemon in it and mix well.

Move the Tahini (which is now a sauce,  it’s also great to put on salads) to a food processor.  Add oil, salt, cumin and garlic.  Mix a little.  Add 1/3 of chickpeas at a time and mix until it’s a nice creamy texture (Add liquid as needed).  Add the remaining liquid until mixture is between liquidy and hard,  Once you put it in the fridge it will harden to the  consistency  you are used to in the store.  (so if you think it’s too liquidy,  don’t worry it will harden).

ENJOY !  Comments are welcome !
