Hummus

This popular Middle Eastern sauce may be served with the traditional pita wedges or may be used as a dip for fresh vegetable crudités. For something a little different, make the original recipe, and then use half to make one of the variations.

Makes 2½ cups

¼cup fresh flat parsley leaves

2strips lemon zest, ½ x 2 inches, bitter white scraped off

½ teaspoon kosher salt

2small garlic cloves

2cans (15.5 ounces each) chickpeas, drained, rinsed and drained again

3 tablespoons tahini paste

2tablespoons fresh lemon juice

5tablespoons water

1½ teaspoons ground cumin

1½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Insert the metal blade. Use the pulse to chop the parsley, 10 to 15 times. Remove and reserve. Chop the lemon zest with the kosher salt using the pulse, 10 times. With the machine running, drop the garlic down the feed tube, and process 10 seconds to chop. Add the drained chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, water, and cumin to the work bowl, processing 60 seconds to combine. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the work bowl. With the machine running, add the olive oil in a slow steady stream, and process until the hummus is smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. Add half the chopped parsley; pulse to incorporate, 5 to 10 times. Allow the hummus to rest for 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend. Serve in a shallow bowl, sprinkled with the remaining chopped parsley. If desired, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil.
