The perfect hummus!!! And its perfect with the falafel I made with @imadssyriankitchen also you can 1/2 or even 1/4 this recipe because it makes ALOT! Ingredients: 500g dried chickpeas ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda 2 tbsp ground cumin 1 tbsp salt 3 tbsp lemon juice 160g tahini 150ml water (with 4 ice cubes) 6 garlic cloves (peeled) Olive oil (for cooking garlic) Instructions: Soak Chickpeas: Place chickpeas in a large bowl, cover with water (double their depth), and soak overnight for at least 14 hours, changing the water halfway through. Cook Chickpeas: Drain and rinse the soaked chickpeas. Cover with fresh water and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, reduce heat to simmer, and add bicarbonate of soda. Cook for 1-2 hours until tender. Prepare Garlic: While chickpeas cook, place peeled garlic cloves in a small saucepan with olive oil. Simmer gently for 5 minutes until garlic is soft and slightly browned. Remove garlic from oil, reserving both separately. Blend Hummus: If you like smooth hummus, blend the chickpeas while still warm. For a chunkier texture, cool them in the fridge first. Add chickpeas, 4 garlic cloves, cumin, salt, and lemon juice to a food processor. Blend while gradually adding tahini. As it thickens, add iced water until desired consistency is reached. Serve and Store: Drizzle with reserved garlic oil and serve with the remaining garlic cloves. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. #hummus #homous #chickpeas #vegan #veggie #easyhummus #authentichummus #syrianhummus #syria #syrianfood - @seemagetsbaked
