So many possibilities!
What do you like?
Anyone who has been to my kitchen knows there is always a bowl of hummus in my refrigerator.
It is often lunch, a snack, sometimes even breakfast or supper.
Its fun to play with, experiment, and add what youve got to the mix.
But my herbs will often vary, and sometimes I dont add them at all!
Ive used that technique here.
They have a nicer flavor, and are much less expensive.
But in a pinch, you will find a can of organic, no-salt added chickpeas in my larder!
If that is what you have, this will turn out fine.
Experiment with herbs
My chives are going crazy in the back yard, so in they went!
Adjust the garlic and cayenne to your own preference, and blend as much or little as you want.
What will you add to it today?
Process another minute, then check for seasoning and consistency.
You might want to stop here, or continue processing until smoother.
Taste again.If you are happy, serve!
Drizzle with a bit more sesame oil and sprinkle with some sesame seeds, I used black ones here.
This is also good topped with toasted chickpeas.
Serve with crackers, toasts, cut-up vegetables, or mound on a salad.
This is also delicious used as a spread on a roll-up.
Cover and cook until the garlic becomes soft, about 25 minutes.
It will just begin to color.
Set this aside for another ten minutes, then place in a sterilized jar.
