Amazing Hummus

Sahadi's in Brooklyn is my go-to for great hummus. I found myself jonesing for some yesterday, but didn't have the time to schlep the outer borough, so I decided to try making my own.  I found this great recipe from Inspired Taste and it delivered!

You will need:



  • One 15-ounce can (425 grams) chickpeas, also called garbanzo beans
  • 1/4 cup (59 ml) fresh lemon juice, about 1 large lemon
  • 1/4 cup (59 ml) tahini (I like Jovya)
  • Half of a large garlic clove, minced (I threw a few extra in!)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon kosher salt, depending on taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons water
  • Dash of ground paprika for serving
