Homemade Hummus

Instructions

  1. The day before, cover the 50 g of dried chickpeas with three times their volume of cold water and let them soak for 12 hours.

  2. Rinse them, cover with fresh water and cook at a gentle simmer for 55 minutes: a chickpea should crush without resistance between two fingers.

  3. Drain, keeping 100 ml of the cooking water, then remove the skins that float to the surface — this is what makes the purée smooth.
