Hummus is an Arabic word meaning “chickpea” is an Arab dip
or spread that is made from chickpeas also known as garbanzo beans.
In 2010, 300 Lebanese chefs gathered in the village of
al-Fanar, about 8 km (5 miles) east of Beirut and broke the Guinness world
record by creating the largest Hummus plate. The Lebanese chefs used 8 tons of
boiled hummus, 2 tons of tahini, 2 tons of lemon juice and 154 lbs (70 kg) of
olive oil for their dish.
Here are the ingredients:
- 250 grams of chickpeas, drenched for 24 hours
- 1 peeled garlic clove
- 50 grams of Tahini
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- Salt
Here are the steps:
- Pour the chickpeas with the baking soda well until it is soft then drain the chickpeas and leave some water boiling aside.
- Place the chickpeas and garlic in the mixer, beat well for 5 minutes and make sure that the chickpeas is completely crushed.
3. Add one tablespoon of lemon juice and salt (based on your
preference), resume mixing for a minute, add the tahini and a little bit of the
boiled water, mix for 3 minutes.
4. The textures are adjusted by adding water gradually with
mixing until the chickpea is obtained as a soft paste.
5. Taste and adjust with salt and lemon juice as needed.
You can decorate the chickpeas in a dish with sumac, mint
leaves and olive oil.
