Ingredients
8ounces chickpeas, 1tsp baking soda, 6cups water, 1tsp kosher salt, 0.75cup tahini, 6tbsp lemon juice, 3cloves garlic cloves, 1tsp cumin, 0.5tsp black pepper, 6tbsp ice water, 0.25cup extra virgin olive oil, 1lemon lemon zest, 0.25cup parsley
Instructions
1. For the 5-minute version, use canned chickpeas. For the best hummus, use dried chickpeas. Soak dried chickpeas in cold water with 1/2 tsp baking soda for about 8 hours.
2. After soaking, cover the chickpeas with 6 cups of water in a saucepan and add another 1/2 tsp baking soda. Bring to a boil, skim off any foam, then reduce heat to a rapid simmer and cover.
3. After 30 minutes of cooking, add 1 tsp kosher salt and cook for another 10-15 minutes until the chickpeas are very soft and smash easily.
4. Drain the chickpeas, reserving some of the cooking liquid. Pick out any loose skins from the chickpeas to improve texture.
5. Add the cooked chickpeas to a food processor and blend for 1-2 minutes until a smooth and thick paste forms. Scrape down the sides occasionally.
6. Add 3/4 cup tahini, 6 tbsp lemon juice, 3 chopped garlic cloves, 1 tsp ground cumin, and season with salt and pepper to the food processor. Blend until combined.
7. With the food processor running, drizzle in 6-10 tbsp ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the hummus is creamy and fluffy.
8. To prepare the topping, thinly slice 3 garlic cloves and peel strips of lemon zest (about 2 inches each) using a vegetable peeler.
9. Heat extra virgin olive oil in a skillet. Add the sliced garlic and cook for a couple of minutes until golden. Add the lemon zest and cook for about 30 seconds until zesty and aromatic. Remove from heat and transfer the garlic and lemon to a plate, sprinkling with a little salt.
10. Chop up some parsley for garnish.
11. Serve the hummus warm or at room temperature. Pour the reserved olive oil from cooking the topping over the hummus, then top with the crispy lemon and garlic pieces and chopped parsley.
