Everyone swears that the way to get smooth hummus is by peeling the chickpeas. I tried it. I couldn't tell the difference. My hummus was not silky smooth. It was smooth in an average way. I am glad I tested it so now I can just dump them in, skins and all, without feeling like I am making sub-par hummus due to lack of peeling. Now I know I am making sub-par hummus and I am perfectly ok with that, because it tastes delicious whether it is silky smooth or moderately smooth.
For the record, this is the recipe I followed: Ethereally Smooth Hummus from Smitten Kitchen.
My hummus is super smooth bc I blend it in the blender after the food processor on purée, :)
ReplyDeleteMini: You are hardcore. That is a lot of dishes for a batch of hummus! I have made it in my vitamix blender before and have gotten smooth results, but it is hard to get it all out of the blender!
