I don't know if their is a hummus thread or not... but for the sake of redundancy I will start another.
For me, hummus is a staple of the vegan diet. I eat it with almonds and spinach in sandwiches, use it as a dip for pita or tortilla chips, or mix it in with rice and some other vegetables to make a stir fry. What are your hummus recipes?
One I just created today... spicy habanero hummus.
Ingredients:
1 16 oz can of chickpeas or garbanzo beans
1/4 cup liquid from can of chickpeas
3-5 tablespoons lemon juice (depending on taste)
1 1/2 tablespoons tahini
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 habanero peppers
Preparation:
Put everything but the garlic cloves and habaneros in a blender. Fry habaneros and garlic in skillet with canola or olive oil on medium heat for about five minutes. Add to the rest of the ingredients. Blend for about five minutes. Put in container. Add shallow depression in the middle. Sprinkle almonds on top and add a dash of olive oil.
Makes an extremely hot, but excellent, hummus that is good with about almost anything.
