7 steps
  1. Soak the dry chickpeas in plenty of water overnight or for at least 8 hours. Drain the water and rinse the chickpeas.

  3. Peel the garlic.

  4. Place the boiled chickpeas, tahini, garlic, olive oil, cumin, juice, and zest of half a lemon (or lime) into a blender or food processor.

  5. Blend until smooth. If necessary, add a little of the water left from boiling the chickpeas or olive oil to reach the desired consistency.

  6. Add salt, pepper, and favorite spices to taste. Mix again.

  7. Transfer the hummus to a bowl. Optionally, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with spices.
