For an extra smooth hummus, peel the skins off the chickpeas before blending. This is a bit time-consuming but yields an exceptionally creamy texture. Adjust the amount of lemon juice and tahini to your personal preference. Some prefer a tangier hummus, while others prefer a nuttier flavor. If your hummus is too thick, add more of the reserved chickpea liquid or a tablespoon of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Store leftover hummus in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Experiment with different flavor variations by adding roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, or spices like cumin or smoked paprika.
