Mushroom Hummus Soup Recipes

HUMMUS SOUP

Steps:

• Soak the chickpeas overnight and drain, or rinse and drain.
• canned chickpeas.
• Combine chickpeas with the water or stock, turmeric, cumin, and coriander in a large heavy-bottomed soup pot.
• Bring to a boil and add the saffron.
• Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour.
• Add the salt and continue to simmer another hour or until the beans are tender.
• (Less cooking time is required if using canned chickpeas.).
• Blend the soup to a smooth puree in a blender, immersion blender or food processor along with the garlic, lemon juice, and tahini.
• Pour back into the pot and whisk in the yogurt.
• Thin out, if you wish, with water or additional yogurt.
• Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Heat through and serve, topping each bowl with a spoonful of yogurt and garnishing with a lemon wedge for squeezing over the soup.
• I like to add a sprig of Italian parsley and a sprinkle of sumac on top of the soup.
• Soup will keep for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator and freezes well.
