Notes
Expert Tips • Pause the food processor midway through blending and scrape down the side before resuming. This ensures an even texture through the batch of hummus. • Don’t feel obliged to add in the reserved liquid. Only do so if you feel that your hummus needs thinning out a little. It’s not always necessary to do this. • Vary how long the hummus is processed for – this dip is great either served smooth or left chunkier. • Try our Dreams garlic and onion chutney with wasabi in place of Jazz chutney. The wasabi adds dramatic punch to the recipe. • Alternatively swap the Jazz chutney for our Bombay spiced tomato chutney for an aromatic tomato version. • Once the hummus is made store it in the fridge for up to 3 days – press a layer of food wrap directly onto the surface of the hummus to stop it from drying out.
