Hummus From Scratch
  • Makes 2 cups
Author Notes

My homemade hummus vastly improved when I used cooked garbanzo beans made from dried beans. Just cook the beans according to the package instructions. You can even cook them a day ahead and store in the fridge overnight. —Lizthechef

  • 2 cups cooked garbanzo beans
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled and finely chopped

  • 1/3 cup tahini (sesame paste)
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 dash Sriracha chili sauce
  • toasted pine nuts and a drizzle of olive oil (optional garnishes)
