Ingredients
-
1 ½ cups dry garbanzo beans
-
2 tablespoons tahini
-
1 teaspoon sea salt
-
2 lemons, juiced
-
4 cloves garlic, crushed or to taste
-
1 cup filtered or spring water
-
1 pinch paprika
Directions
-
Soak beans for 24 hours. Drain, and let sit for 2 to 3 days until beans' sprouts are about 1/2-inch long. Rinse beans once or twice a day.
-
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Remove from heat, and let stand for 1 minute. Place sprouted beans in hot water and let sit for 1 minute. Drain. If you do not do this step, hummus will be awful.
-
Place sprouted beans into the container of a large food processor. Add tahini, sea salt, lemon juice, and garlic. Process until smooth, adding water if necessary. It will take 3 to 5 minutes to blend. Let sit in the food processor for 5 minutes to allow beans to absorb as much of water as possible. If too thick, add more water, and blend again. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Spoon into a serving dish and garnish with paprika.
