I am seriously addicted to hummus. I could (and I do 🙂 ) eat it every single day. In this post, I will show you how to make HUMMUS 4 Ways Using 4 DIFFERENT Beans. We´re going to take homemade hummus to the next-level in goodness.
The 4 hummus recipes included here are: Classic garlic hummus using chickpeas, tex-mex hummus using pinto beans, olive tapenade hummus using red kidney beans and a roasted pepper hummus using white beans.
All 4 of these hummus recipes are loaded with flavors, made with simple ingredients and super easy to make. You will need a food processor to make these hummus recipes.
TIPS & TRICKS to make these Recipes: The secret ingredient to all of these hummus recipes is the Tahini Paste. This is what gives hummus that incredible texture and flavor. You can substitute for almond or peanut butter, though the flavors will be different. As you are making each hummus, add the water in smaller portions than stated below, and then add more as needed. This way you can control the creamy texture you desire.
Key Ingredients & Cookware I used in this Recipes:
FOOD PROCESSOR
EXTRA VIRGIN SPANISH OLIVE OIL
TAHINI PASTE
SPANISH SEA SALT
