Hummus (Chickpea Dip) #09 Preparation
This is a constant staple in my house and a quick snack. Combine all the above ingredients in a blender or food processor and add just enough of the reserved liquid to make the mixture move. Hummus keeps a couple of weeks tightly sealed in the refrigerator. Serving Suggestions: In the middle east this is served with pita bread (pocket bread) toasted and cut into triangles (whole wheat pita is easily available and is nutritionally better). The toasted triangles are then dipped into the hummus which is on served on a large flat plate with oil drizzled on the top. I usually spread it like peanut butter on whole grain toast or a whole grain roll. Serve with fresh fruit or a salad for a very satisfying snack or light meal. NOTE: Tahini is sesame paste, which is basically like peanut butter except it is made with crushed, toasted sesame seeds. In order to keep the fat content low, I get a jar of Tahini where the oil has separated on the top, and then I pour the oil off before using it. It appears to make no difference in the taste or consistency, but lowers the fat content substantially. Toasted Tahini is available at Mother”s and sometimes at Trader Joe”s.
