A delightful twist on the classic hummus recipe, adding a touch of zest and creaminess.
Drain and rinse the garbanzo beans.
Rinsing canned beans reduces sodium content and ensures a cleaner flavor.
Juice the lemon and set aside.
Rolling the lemon on the counter before juicing helps extract more juice.
Add the garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, cumin, garlic, and olive oil to the food processor.
For a creamier texture, blend for an extra minute.
Blend until smooth, adding water gradually to achieve desired consistency.
Scrape down the sides of the processor to ensure even blending.
Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of cumin.
Adding a garnish enhances the presentation and flavor.
