Black Olive Hummus Recipes

Steps:

• To the bowl of a food processor or high-powered blender, add the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pulse, adding the liquid from the beans as needed to keep things moving, until the hummus is very smooth.
• Add the olives and pulse until chopped. I like to whirr them almost completely in; you may prefer a chunkier hummus. Taste and add additional salt if desired.
• Scoop into a serving bowl and top with additional sliced olives, a sprinkle of smoked paprika, and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
• Keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for 3-4 days.

Steps:

• All all ingredients except oils, water and salt to a food processor.
• Pulse ingredients until they start to form a paste.
• Add lemon olive oil, and turn food processor on.
• Add olive oil a tbsp at a time until you reach a smooth creamy texture.
• If the hummus is too thick, add water in teaspoons to help thin it out.
• Taste and add salt if needed. (if using olive paste, you will not need salt.).

Steps:

• Pulse the garlic in a food processor. Add the olives and chickpeas and pulse until a chunky paste starts to form.
• With the motor running, drizzle in the oil. Add the parsley, cumin and lemon juice. Season with salt. Pulse to combine, scraping down the sides.
• Transfer the hummus to a bowl. Serve with pita chips, crackers or crudites.
