spacer40 Best Recipe Contest for September's recipe contest is: Chicken! Chicken is the most common type of poultry in the world. Owing to the relative ease and low cost of raising chickens—in comparison to mammals such as cattle or hogs—chicken meat and chicken eggs have become prevalent in numerous cuisines. Chicken can be prepared in a vast range of ways, including baking, grilling, barbecuing, frying, and boiling. Since the latter half of the 20th century, prepared chicken has become a staple of fast food. Chicken is sometimes cited as being more healthful than red meat, with lower concentrations of cholesterol and saturated fat.

(#5608875) Easy Hummus

Posted by Clivia on 9 Jun 2024 at 8:17AM
Easy Hummus - 10 minutes



1 15 oz can of chickpeas - drained and rinsed

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (1 large lemon)

1/4 cup well-stirred tahini (or unsweetened natural peanut butter)

1 small garlic clove - minced

2 T extra-virgin olive oil - plus more for serving

1/2 t ground cumin

salt to taste

2-3 T water

dash paprika for serving



In the bowl of a food processor, combine the tahini and lemon juice and process for 1 minute, scrape side and bottom of the bowl the process for 30 seconds more.  This is to 'whip' the tahini.

Add the olive oil, minced garlic, cumin and 1/2 t salt to whipped tahini and lemon juice and process for 30 seconds.  Scrape sides and bottom of bowl, then process another 30 seconds.  Add half of the chickpeas and process for 1 minute - scrape sides and bottom then add remaining chickpeas and process, slowly adding water by tablespoon until perfect consistency is reached.  Taste for salt and adjust as needed, serve with drizzle of olive oil and dash of paprika.  Store in airtight container in fridge for up to one week.
