Chipotle Hummus

 

Ingredients:

 

2 cans (15.5-oz) Garbanzo beans

(chickpeas) drained, with liquid reserved

2 teaspoons Cumin powder

3/4

teaspoon Freshly ground pepper

3/4 teaspoon Salt

1/3 cup Fresh lemon

juice

1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon Fresh garlic

chopped

1/3 cup Tahini (sesame seed paste)

4 whole Chipotle chiles in

adobo sauce (use more or less to taste)

2 teaspoons Adobo sauce from canned

chipotle chiles (use more or less

to taste)

 

Instructions:

 

Puree

all ingredients except bean liquid in a food processor.

Gradually add the

minimum amount of chickpea liquid required to give

the mixture a thick,

creamy, smooth consistency. Blend until all

graininess is gone. Cover and

refrigerate at least 1 hour.

 

Note: Using 4 chiles makes this hummus

mildly spicy.
