Ingredients

Mustard Hummus

  • 15 oz (425 g) canned chickpeas,
  • 1 tablespoon mustard (Old-style or dijon - see notes)
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) tahini (make sure it’s well-stirred)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt to taste (I added 1 teaspoon)
  • 3 tablespoons ( 45 ml) iced water
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving

Instructions

Mustard Hummus:

  • Drain the chickpeas and rinse. For a creamer and smooth hummus, remove the skin of the chickpeas (read post content for instructions).
  • Combine the mustard, lemon juice, tahini, garlic, cumin, salt, and water in a food processor, and blend to a creamy purée.
  • Add chickpeas and then drizzle in the olive oil while blending. Blend until smooth. Add an additional tablespoon of cold water if needed to smooth. Taste and add more lemon juice or salt to taste if necessary.
  • Place hummus into a dinner plate and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Store homemade hummus in an airtight container and refrigerate up to one week.

Notes

 
Mustard: You can use Old-style mustard to add some texture to the hummus or Dijon mustard for a smoother texture.
Store homemade hummus in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to one week.
Recipe Tips:
  • Mustard can be very strong for some people, so feel free to add less or more according to your liking.
  • You can make hummus in either a food processor or a high-powered blender.
  • Use iced water when blending the hummus with the tahini and spices. This helps create an extra creamy and fluffy texture.
