Directions
Hummus with Pureed Sesame Seeds (No Pre-made Tahini Here!), No tahini and you’re craving hummus? No problem! Dig out that bag of sesame seeds lurking in your cupboard and make this wonderful chick pea dip I wonder if toasting the sesame seeds first would be good Usually hummus also calls for added oil which certainly does add richness, but lots of calories too There is no (or little) added fat in this recipe so why not enjoy a healthy dip guilt-free?, Very tasty I cut it in half except the garlic used dried beans and I had already drained them so I just used water Used 3/4 + 1/8 cup cooked garbanzo beans So happy I don’t have to waste money on tahini which is hard to find in this small town and it usually goes to waste Thank you for this easy and delicious recipe , This is my new go-to hummus recipe! I can’t be bothered to always have tahini around, but I almost always have sesame seeds The only change I made was to increase the garlic a bit, and use dried chickpeas instead of canned In case anyone is wondering, you start with 1 5 cups dried beans, which comes out to just over 4 cups cooked Then just save some of the cooking liquid As far as the mealy texture from the seeds, you really have to blend it a long time to get the right texture, and slowly add liquid as it blends (used a food processor, so that’s probably why mine came out nice and smooth)
