How to Make Hummus That’s Better Than Store-Bought – Easy Hummus Recipe

In this video, I’ll guide you through creating the perfect creamy and smooth homemade hummus. With a few simple tricks, you can achieve a hummus that’s even better than what you find in stores. I’ll show you step-by-step how to make it, whether you’re a hummus enthusiast or a beginner, this recipe is sure to impress!

Pay attention to a few points

-Certainly! Garlic is a common ingredient in many hummus recipes, lending its distinct flavor and aroma, I don’t like to add garlic in this recipe, but if you like, you can add 1 or 2 cloves of garlic. However, personal preferences vary, and if you prefer your hummus without garlic, that’s absolutely fine! Remember, cooking is all about personalization. Feel free to experiment and make your hummus uniquely delicious!

-Certainly! Using ice and aquafaba are indeed clever tricks to enhance the texture of your homemade hummus. Let’s break down how each of these ingredients contributes:
-Ice:
Adding ice during the blending process helps keep the hummus cool. This prevents the mixture from heating up due to the friction of the blender blades. When the ingredients stay cool, the fats (such as olive oil and tahini) emulsify better, resulting in a smoother texture.
Additionally, the cold temperature helps prevent the hummus from becoming too thick or sticky.
-Aquafaba (the liquid from canned chickpeas):
Aquafaba is a fantastic natural emulsifier and thickener. It contains starches and proteins.
When you incorporate aquafaba into your hummus, it helps bind the ingredients together, creating a creamier consistency.

Finally, you can decorate with some olive oil, chickpeas, paprika and fresh parsley and serve this delicious hummus. Enjoy!
