    HUMMUS
    Ingredients:
    400 gr canned chickpeas (~14 oz, ~0.9 lb)
    6 tablespoons tahini
    1 lemon
    6 cubes of ice
    2 garlic cloves
    2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    Half teaspoon salt
    to garnish:
    ground sumac
    ground cumin
    2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    Parsley
    Directions:
    - For a perfectly smooth hummus first you need to peel the chickpeas. Add 400 gr
    canned chickpeas in a large bowl and rub to take the skin of.
    - Fill the bowl with water and skins will start to float. When you drain, skins will group
    on water and it will be much easier to collect.
    - Add peeled chickpeas, 2 cloves of garlic, half of a teaspoon salt, 6 tablespoons of
    tahini and 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to food processor.
    - Squeeze a lemon juice and run for 7-8 minutes on low-medium speed.
    - While the food processor is working the hummus will get warm. To avoid that add 6
    cubes of ice gradually. ıce will help to make a smooth hummus as well.
    - After a couple of minutes hummus will be ok but not smooth enough. Don’t give
    up and continue until the hummus is creamy. You can run on high speed at this stage.
    - Taste and adjust the lemon, tahini and salt to your taste. Garlic and olive oil always
    need time to settle. If you have 2-3 hours before eating the taste will be better.
    - When the hummus is ready put on serving table and make a little crater with the
    back of a spoon.
    - Sprinkle ground sumac, cumin and parsley leaves. Last but not least pour 2-3
    tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.
    - Enjoy your creamy, tasty, simple hummus with your lavash or chips as your spoon!

      God people are so "woke" that they're asleep lol
      All these people talking feeling people's "energy" over videos and pictures and shit lol
      Energy is a physical current. You literally feel it from being in the physical presence of someone else. It's like the feeling you get in a room of people. Or when someone walks in the room with you. before you even see them you feel their energy. It's like the feeling when you try and push the positive end of two magnets together. It's a physical thing. People get energy confused with a "vibe". Vibe is a better word to use that actually makes sense. Vibe has been turned into a work that means more like a person's demeanor, or expectations of what kind of energy that they give off. Millennial "woke culture" is so lame. These kids lack so much self awareness that they don't even know what the back of their hand looks like due to their iphones being in their face 24/7

    Depending on who comes over, I add more or less garlic and paprika before serving.
    Made it today with my granddaughter and she ate it along with the chicken (she literally dipped the chicken into the hummus).
    Thank you for posting it and making us feel as if we were in the kitchen with you.

Open the bowls and BAM!!!! Skinless cloves! I can't tell you how many of thousands of cloves I peeled by hand (and knife) in my past chef career. If I only knew this secret back then. The chick pea skinning goes right up there with the garlic clove!

    I love and appreciate your videos!! Thank you. I am in the Mediterranean climate in America... SoCal, trying to emulate your dishes in an organic-raw-vegan manner (not roasting the hulled sesame seeds in making tahini). I am a complicated person trying to be simple (and not always so good at that). So far, besides your ingredients, I've added flat parsley, tumeric root, hemp hearts, corriander seeds, cumin, black pepper and some nutritional yeast and too much raw garlic, so I compensated with cinnamon (which added a fabulous burst!), but I think I need more lemon and better quality olive oil. It's kina blah (I salt-avoidant). I learned that the sumac seasoning is NOT the same sumac I see growing everywhere here in the chaparral, but that the sumac used in your area also grows in America's midwest. I will add beetroot and chives next, to see what happens. I love your videos!
