Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a high-powered blender or food processor, combine the drained garbanzo beans, diced jalapeno peppers, jalapeno juice, lemon juice, olive oil, tahini, and minced garlic. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Process until a smooth paste forms, gradually adding the reserved garbanzo bean liquid, one tablespoon at a time, until your desired consistency is reached. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Add the cayenne pepper, cumin, oregano, black pepper, and smoked paprika. (1 minute)

04

Step

Blend again until all spices are fully incorporated and the hummus is uniformly smooth and creamy. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Transfer the hummus to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to allow the flavors to meld and intensify. (4 hours)

06

Step

Serve chilled with pita bread, fresh vegetables, or your favorite dippers. Enjoy!

For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeno peppers before dicing.
If you prefer a smoother hummus, peel the skins off the garbanzo beans before blending.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to suit your desired level of spiciness.
A drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of smoked paprika make a beautiful garnish before serving.
