Steps:

  • In a food processor combine beans, tahini (if desired), yogurt, garlic, and lemon juice. Blend well. Add salt, cumin and cayenne and blend to a smooth and creamy dip.
  • If you hummus is too thick, add a little bit of the liquid from the chickpeas - about a teaspoon at time. Other ways to thin out hummus is by using warm water or olive oil also.

1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas (save liquid) or 1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained (save liquid)
1 -2 garlic clove, crushed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon tahini (optional, but if you do not use, increase yogurt by 1 TBLS) or 1 tablespoon low-fat peanut butter, if you prefer (optional, but if you do not use, increase yogurt by 1 TBLS)
1/2 cup plain yogurt
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 pinch cayenne

  • When making a homemade hummus recipe, what really makes a difference is the order that you add the ingredients.
  • To prepare this homemade hummus recipe with homemade tahini, start by making the tahini paste. You can either use the sesame seeds raw or roasted. Roasting the sesame seeds will make them easier to grind and your tahini will have better texture. But if you have a really good food processor use them raw as tahini made from raw sesame is lower in fat. Place the sesame seeds on a large baking tray and roast them for about 5 minutes, until fragrant and glossy. Sesame seeds can burn very quickly, so make sure to shake them frequently and be careful not to brown them.
  • To prepare this version of homemade hummus recipe without tahini, place the garlic in a food processor and mince.

  • Place the drained chickpeas in the food processor. Add the grated garlic cloves, olive oil, lemon juice, tahini, salt, cumin, coriander, and paprika and process until really smooth, scraping the walls of the food processor a few times in between.
  • Add some cooking water (or water from the chickpea can) little by little to obtain the desired consistency. You don't have to add it all, just stop when you think the consistency is right, it should have more or less the consistency of mashed potatoes.
  • Adjust the taste with more lemon juice or salt. Transfer to a bowl, and sprinkle with nigella seeds.
