1) Place all of the ingredients in a food processor / blender, and mix until the chick peas are smooth
2) Refrigerate the hummus in a covered container
3) Serve well chilled, with the chooped parsley on top, for garnish, and a dash of olive oil, if you fancy. If you desire, reserve 1/4 cup of the canned / drained chick peas (unmashed) and also sprinkle these on top for added effect and taste
4) Serve with warm pitta bread - and now you have some truly Israeli hummus!
NB: If you like, you can allso add more garlic to taste
Hi AnnaR1 - This looks great! I had a question - I've seen tahini pasta, but wondered what the difference is between tahina and tahini pasta? Where can I buy it?
Thanks!
