Hummus is one of the most commonly served dishes at Middle Eastern restaurants. Hummus means “chickpeas” in Arabic and is actually an abbreviation of the Arabic name of the dish hummus bil-tahina, which means hummus with tahini. This simple but typically bland dip has five essential ingredients: chickpeas, tahina (sesame paste), olive oil, lemon juice and garlic. While hummus bil-tahina is served in Egypt today, it is more frequently found at traditional restaurants than at home. The recipe you find here is an original, authentic hummus recipe.
Ingredients
1.5 cups chickpeas (15 oz can), drained and rinsed
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup tahini
1/2 cup wine red wine vinegar
2 tbsp fresh parsley
2 tbsp fresh mint
1/4 cup shelled pistachios, raw
Instructions
Mash the chickpeas with a fork or potato masher.
Stir together the olive oil, red wine vinegar and tahini and then mix in with the chickpeas.
Toast all of the nuts in a skillet on medium heat. Stir often, careful not to burn. Should take about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Read More…
