Traditional Hummus bi Tahini Recipe

Adapted from Marian Burros, book, Cooking for Comfort, (Simon and Schuster, 2003).

Traditionally called Hummus bi Tahini, this hummus recipe is classic and easy.



Directions:
1. With the food processor running, put the garlic through the feed tube and process until minced.

2. Add the garbanzo beans, tahini, water, olive oil, lemon juice, cumin and piment de espelette (if using), and process until the mixture is smooth.

3. Season with the salt.

4. Refrigerate to blend the flavors for at least a couple of hours -- but up to two days, if desired.

To serve, return the hummus to room temperature. Sprinkle with the parsley and decorate with the lemon wedges, olives, and a drizzle of additional olive oil, if desired. Serve with warm pita wedges.
