PREPARATION
- Put all the ingredients in the food processor, starting with just 2.5 ml (1/2 tsp) of salt.
- Puree until smooth and homogeneous. If necessary, add a little water or olive oil, until you obtain the desired texture. Adjust seasoning to taste (salt, spices).
- Refrigerate in an airtight container. As the hummus will reach its full flavor after a few hours of cooling, it is always best to refrigerate for a few hours before adjusting the seasoning.
- Keeps for one week in the refrigerator.
