1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas
⅓ cup tahini
4 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon cumin (or more to taste)
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
⅛ teaspoon coriander
¼ teaspoon cayenne
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lemon, juice of
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 teaspoons parsley (fresh or dry)
12-1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons water (thin to taste)

1
First I drain and rinse the chickpeas very well (this is important).
2
When I have time, I will boil them for 5 minutes and then let them sit in the water for an hour because the are sometimes still very hard in the can.
3
I put all of the ingredients into the food processor and I run the processor, pulsing at first, then full on.
4
I like my hummus very smooth, so I process for about 5-6 minutes, scraping down and stirring a few times.
5
I also like to add water until it is very smooth (personal taste).
6
I taste for seasoning and sometimes add more salt, pepper, etc.
7
Add a little extra cayenne and smoked paprika for a much more spicy and exciting hummus.
8
If you like lemon hummus, add more lemon zest and lemon juice and leave out the paprika and coriander.
9
Enjoy!
