Recipe: Herbed Hummus
When my son was at a school function with each family bringing food from a particular region of the world, someone brought a good herbed hummus and a recipe for it. However, I fiddled with it to come up with a different one that is getting good reviews from people who had the first one.
Recipe
- 1/3 cup packed fresh parsley leaves
- 1/3 cup packed fresh basil leaves
- 1/4 cup grated fresh Parmesean cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup tahini (sesame seed paste)
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/8 tsp. ground pepper
- 1 (15 ounce) can garbonzo beans (also called chick peas), drained
- 3-4 garlic cloves
- 3/4 cup olive oil
- Put all ingredients other than oil into food processor.
- While processing, pour oil through feed tube. Process until smooth, periodically stopping and scraping down sides.
