Heavy On The Garlic Hummus Recipes

ROASTED GARLIC HUMMUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the loose papery outside skin from the garlic heads, but keep the cloves intact. Cut about 1/2 inch from top. Place the garlic cloves each in a piece of foil that's large enough to wrap around. Lightly drizzle with olive oil. Close the foil up. Bake in heated oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until the garlic is very soft. Remove from heat and let cool briefly, then peel.
• In the bowl of a food processor, fitted with a blade, place the roasted garlic, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and water. Sprinkle salt, sumac and cayenne. Blend until smooth. Be sure to add a little more water as needed, until you achieve desired smooth texture. You can also add a little more lemon juice to your taste. Taste and adjust for salt and spices.
• Spread the roasted garlic hummus in a bowl. Add a generous drizzle of quality extra virgin olive oil. Top with za'atar spice, and if you like, parsley, toasted pine nuts, and crumbled feta.
• Serve with warm pita bread or toasted crostini and assorted vegetables. Enjoy!
