Za'atar Hummus
Cooking Time: 45 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
INGREDIENTS
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
- 3 tsps Egyptian Za'atar
- 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained, or approx. 2 cups cooked chickpeas
- ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice
- 3 tsps tahini
- 2 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- splash of water or blending
METHOD
- Preheat a skillet or saute pan over low heat, and add the tablespoon of cooking oil. Cook the garlic for about 1 minute, stirring to make sure it doesn't burn. Add the za'atar and stir. Let bloom in the oil for about 20 seconds then remove from heat.
- To a high-speed blender or food processor, add about ⅔ of the za'atar-garlic mixture and all of the remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping as needed to scrape down the sides. Add a splash of water as needed to keep the blender moving and to reach the desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more za'atar, lemon or salt as desired. Blend again to incorporate. Serve with the remaining za'atar oil drizzled on top.
