  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ cup tahini

  • Drain the beans then peel the “skin” off each bean by pinching them between your fingers (this should be easy after we cooked the beans).
  • Place the peeled garbanzo beans and the garlic in a food processor and process until pureed. While the processor is running, pour in the cold water and lemon juice and continue to process until well mixed.

  • Open the lid and scrap down the sides then add the baking soda, tahini, and sea salt and process further for 3 - 5 minutes until light and fluffy; add a tablespoon more water to make the mixture more fluffy and airy and ¼ more tahini if you prefer thicker hummus.
