Equipment

  • High-powered food processor

Ingredients
  

  • cups drained chickpeas (one 15 ounce can)
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill
  • 1 garlic clove
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 tablespoons water

Instructions
 

  • Combine the chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, dill, garlic clove, and kosher salt in a food processor.
  • Blend until the mixture stops moving, then stop the food processor and use a spatula to scrape the mixture toward the blades. Blend for another minute.
  • Add the water and blend for another two minutes. If the mixture stops moving, you may need to stop the food processor and scrape the mixture toward the blades.
  • Blend until smooth and creamy. If the hummus is too thick for your preference, add a little bit more water and blend again.
  • Enjoy immediately or scrape into an airtight container and store in the fridge.
