Extra-Creamy Hummus

Ingredients

• 1 can canned garbanzo beans (Drained and rinsed; approximately 15 oz (425 g) can)
• 1 lemon juice (Juice of 1 lemon)
• 3 ice cubes
• 0.25 cup tahini
• salt (A good pinch, or to taste)
• olive oil (Good olive oil, to taste or for drizzling)

Steps

1. 1

   Drain and rinse one can of garbanzo beans. Add the beans to a blender or food processor.

2. 2

   Add the juice of one lemon, three ice cubes, 1/4 cup tahini, and a good pinch of salt.

3. 3

   Add a good amount of olive oil according to taste or desired richness.

4. 4

   Blend until the hummus is completely smooth and creamy. The ice cubes help create the recipe's extra-creamy texture.

5. 5

   Taste and adjust the salt, lemon juice, or olive oil if needed. Serve immediately, with an additional drizzle of olive oil if desired.

Notes

The transcript does not specify the exact can size or amount of olive oil. For a thicker hummus, blend thoroughly and add olive oil gradually; a small splash of water can be added only if needed to loosen the mixture, although it was not listed in the source.
