Ingredients:
– 3 cups sprouted chickpeas (from 1 1/2 cups dry chickpeas, allow 3-4 days to sprout)
– 1 clove garlic
– 1/2 cup / 125ml tahini
– zest and juice of 1 organic lemon
– sea salt, to taste
– 1 Tbsp. ground cumin
– 1/2 – 1 tsp. cayenne, to taste (optional but delicious)
– 1/4 cup / 60ml olive oil
– pure water, as needed
Special Equipment:
– food processor
Directions:
1. Sprout chickpeas (this takes 3-4 days so make sure to start the project a few days in advance!) Give the chickpeas one final rinse before starting the hummus.
2. Pulse garlic in the food processor to mince. Add the tahini, lemon zest and juice, salt, cumin, cayenne and olive oil. Blend on high until combined, then add the chickpeas and blend. Scrape down the sides of the food processor, and blend again, until smooth. Add water as needed until desired consistency is reached. Season to taste.
3. Enjoy immediately, or store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days.
