Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings
- 1 can canned chickpeas
- Store-bought sesame dressing, about half the volume of the chickpeas
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3-4 ice cubes
- Assorted fresh vegetables, as needed
- Crackers or baguette slices, as needed
Recipe 🍳
- Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under running water. Drain thoroughly to remove excess water.
- In a blender cup, combine the drained chickpeas and store-bought sesame dressing. (Use approximately half the volume of the chickpeas for the dressing).
- Add a generous amount of olive oil for flavor. Include 3-4 ice cubes to ensure a smooth, creamy texture without making it too thick.
- Blend until the ice cubes are completely crushed and the mixture forms a smooth, creamy puree.
- Cut assorted fresh vegetables (such as radishes, celery, carrots, cucumbers) into uniform, bite-sized sticks.
- Serve the creamy chickpea sesame spread in a bowl or on a plate, surrounded by the cut vegetable sticks and plain crackers.
- Rinse canned chickpeas and drain thoroughly.
- Combine chickpeas, sesame dressing, olive oil, and ice cubes in a blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Serve with cut fresh vegetables and crackers.
Cooking tips 💡
- Adding ice cubes while blending helps lower the temperature from the blender's friction and creates a stable emulsion of oil and chickpea particles.
- Store the spread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a convenient and healthy snack for several days.
- For a more exotic, authentic hummus flavor, sprinkle with cumin powder or paprika on top, if desired.
