HUMMUS WITH DIAL R FOR RAS
The best hummus is lusciously creamy, yet somehow light and fluffy.
Here the combination of Dial R for Ras and orange (both the juice and the zest) add an unexpected flair to this crowd-pleasing snack.
INGREDIENTS
- 45 g Shelled Pistachios (or other nuts) finely ground
- 1 can Chickpeas, rinsed (save some of the aquafaba from the can to add to the mixer, and ideally give the chickpeas a quick boil with water and 1 tsp of baking soda. This will break down the shell so you don’t have to peel them.)
- 1 clove of Garlic, minced
- ½ Orange (both the juice of and the zest of)
- 1 tsp Lemon juice, fresh squeezed
- 1 Tbsp Tahini
- 1/4 Cup Aquafaba *Optional
- 2 tsp Dial R for Ras
- 2 Tbsp Olive oil, plus a bit extra to drizzle on top when you serve it
DIRECTIONS
- Gently toast the nuts and then set them aside.
- Combine all the ingredients in a food processor. Whiz until very smooth adding a bit of water or olive oil as needed until you get a good consistency. Scape the sides of the food processor as you go to make sure everything is blended.
Serve room temperature with veggies, or crackers.
