For this recipe you’ll need:

6 cloves roasted garlic (see note, below)

One package Abood Market chickpeas, cooked as directed (available at The Chopping Block)

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 teaspoons ground cumin

3 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus additional for garnish

2 tablespoons tahini

Salt to taste

Water as needed

Smoky paprika, for garnish

Place all of the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor.
Puree until well blended, adding water as needed to make the hummus silky and smooth.
Garnish by making a well in the middle of the hummus and filling the indentation with olive oil. Sprinkle the top with smoky paprika and serve with Pita Chips.

Note:

To roast garlic, slice the top off a whole head of garlic to expose the cloves. Place it in a small ovenproof dish, drizzle with olive oil and cover with foil. Bake at 350º for 40 to 50 minutes, until the cloves are soft and a light golden color.
