Directions
Hummus With Toasted Pine Nuts, Cumin Seeds and Parsley Oil, Hummus is so common today it’s almost become a little boring Not this version! The starchiness of the chickpeas is counteracted by the sharpness of the parsley oil Plus the bright green oil makes for an great presentation Found this recipe in The Gourmet Cookbook , Made as written for ZWT6, this is excellent hummus & made even better by the parsley oil + pine nuts atop the chickpea mixture Both added texture variants & made for a lovely presentation For just 2 of us, I decided to make a half recipe Then it got a bit tricky because the can size here is 14 oz & all ingredients had to be adjusted accordingly My magic bullet made quick work of both mixtures & the hummus was smooth as silk Only at the end as I was doing the final touches did I realize I’d made an error The cumin seeds had disappeared into the whizzed smooth hummus Those who esp like a heavy garlic presence can afford to increase the amt listed I served it w/toasted pita triangles I brushed w/olive oil & sprinkled w/garlic powder, so I got my extra garlic fix that way Thx for sharing this tasty & easy-fix recipe w/us 🙂
