50 | <ul> | |
98266870 CE |
51 | <li>1 cup dried chick peas (or two cans; if using cans, try to find "no |
52 | salt added" to avoid making things too salty)</li> | |
3c59982c | 53 | <li>1/4 cup liquid from chick peas (or vegetable stock)</li> |
98266870 CE |
54 | <li>8 cloves (one head) of <a href="Roasted%20Garlic.html">Roasted Garlic</a></li> |
55 | <li>Medium red bell pepper, roasted</li> | |
3c59982c | 56 | <li>2 tsp paprika</li> |
98266870 CE |
57 | <li>1 tsp ground cumin</li> |
58 | <li>1/2 tsp table salt</li> | |
59 | <li>5 tbsp (~1 lemon) fresh lemon juice</li> | |
60 | <li>2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (if you can get your hands on it, | |
61 | <a href="http://www.palestineoliveoil.org/">Holy Land</a> is great)</li> | |
3c59982c | 62 | <li>5 tbsp tahini</li> |

70 | Preparing the Beans</h3> | |
71 | ||
72 | <p class="first">Just soak a cup of dried beans at least overnight in a couple of cups | |
3c59982c | 73 | of water. Drain them and throw them into a pot with enough water to |
74 | just more than cover them (an extra inch or so seems to be | |
75 | good). Bring everything to a boil uncovered, and then cut the heat | |
76 | back to simmer partially covered for about an hour or an hour and a | |
77 | half (when the skins split easily they have a good texture).</p> | |
3cb3fdfc | 78 | |
79 | <p>When you drain them save the liquid and use that when blending the | |
80 | hummus.</p> | |

3c59982c | 84 | Bell Pepper</h3> |
3cb3fdfc | 85 | |
98266870 CE |
86 | <p class="first">Scorch the skin off of the bell pepper over flame or under a broiler |
87 | (optional — I leave the skins on and notice no difference), and then | |
88 | <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130527144021/http://www.ochef.com/158.htm">roast the pepper</a>:</p> | |
3c59982c | 89 | |
90 | <blockquote> | |
91 | <p class="quoted">To roast the pepper, put the cut pieces in a baking dish with a | |
92 | little oil and pop it into a 400°F (205°C) oven, until the pieces | |
98266870 | 93 | are tender and slightly browned, about 35 minutes.</p> |
3c59982c | 94 | </blockquote> |
3cb3fdfc | 95 | |
98266870 CE |
96 | <p>Conveniently, this is the same temperature garlic is roasted at, so |
97 | you can roast both at the same time.</p> | |

103 | <ol> | |
11f9bd69 CE |
104 | <li>Prepare the beans (or open canned beans).</li> |
105 | <li>Add beans, roasted garlic, and chickpea water to food processor work | |
106 | bowl; process for two minutes.</li> | |
98266870 CE |
107 | <li>Add lemon juice; process for one minute</li> |
108 | <li>Add tahini, roasted bell pepper, salt, cumin, and paprika; process | |
11f9bd69 | 109 | for one minute.</li> |
98266870 | 110 | <li>Drizzle olive oil in while processing for three minutes.</li> |
11f9bd69 CE |
111 | <li>Garnish if you desire (minced garlic, capers, coarsely ground |
112 | black pepper, and olive oil for example).</li> | |
98266870 CE |
113 | <li>Take to a gathering of some sort.</li> |
114 | <li>Watch the hummus evaporate.</li> | |

120 | Notes</h2> | |
121 | ||
122 | <p class="first">One time I decided to make hummus for folks and alas! I forgot to soak | |
123 | beans the night before. My strange friend came to the rescue with the | |
124 | equivalent amount of home prepared white beans and it was a good | |
125 | substitute (slightly different flavor, but the spices here really | |
98266870 CE |
126 | dominate). I used water from boiling dried tomatoes (slightly |
127 | different recipe) as there was no fresh chickpea water on hand and it | |
128 | was delightful.</p> | |
3cb3fdfc | 129 | |
3c59982c | 130 | <p>I've used cheap blenders, decent food processors, and a |
11f9bd69 CE |
131 | super-expensive blender to make this. It comes out adequately with |
132 | most any equipment. You can just blend everything together at a | |
133 | moderate speed until the consistency is whatever you consider | |
134 | reasonably smooth, but processing in steps with a good food processor | |
135 | results in a slightly better texture.</p> | |
136 | ||
137 | <p>I've done this with and without removing the skins, and I personally | |
e59991eb | 138 | don't think it's worth the effort to remove the skins.</p> |
