2 small or one large clove of garlic
3/4 tsp kosher salt
2 T tahini
Juice from 1 med lemon (about 2.5T)
2T water
2T olive oil
Put the garlic, chickpeas, and salt in the food processor, process 20 seconds, scrape down the sides and process 20 more. Add lemon juice and water, process 20 sec, scrape down the sides and add tahini, then 20 sec more. Then, stop it one last time, scrape down the sides, and turn the food pro back on- while the food pro is running, drizzle the olive oil in slowly. Then process as long as you like (mine was in about a minute total from when I started drizzling). It has a bit of texture too it, but not too much. The flavors are all subtle, but nicely balanced!!
You could use this and add in some sun dried tomatoes or kalamata olives (or both??). Makes about 2 cups!
