Equipment
Instructions
Prepare Roasted Garlic:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Remove excess papery skin from garlic head, keeping cloves intact. Use a sharp knife to slice ¼ to ½-inch from top of garlic head, exposing cloves.
- Place garlic on a piece of aluminum foil, then drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Wrap foil around garlic, then roast garlic until cloves are soft and browned, about 40 to 50 minutes.
- Set aside until cool enough to handle, then squeeze garlic from skins.
Prepare Hummus:
- Pulse one fresh garlic clove in a food processor until minced.
- Add chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, roasted garlic, and salt (to taste) to food processor. Blend for at least 3 minutes, or until totally smooth. Add a little cold water, as needed, to make blending easier or to reach desired consistency.
- Taste, then adjust seasoning to taste with more salt and / or lemon juice, if needed.
- Serve hummus with veggies and pita chips for dipping. Enjoy!
