Ingredients

6 servings

2 cans (15 oz each) chickpeas, drained, liquid reserved separately
½ cup well-stirred tahini
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1 large lemon)
2 cloves garlic, peeled
¾ tsp fine salt, plus more to taste
½ tsp ground cumin
3–5 tbsp reserved chickpea liquid or cold water, as needed

For serving

2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, for serving
¼ tsp smoked paprika or sweet paprika, for serving (optional)
1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Add the garlic and lemon juice to the bowl of a food processor and process for about 15 seconds, until the garlic is finely minced. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes — this mellows the raw garlic bite.
2
Add the tahini and salt to the processor and process for 1 minute, until the mixture is thick and pale.
