Almond Pulp Hummus
Description
The Almond Pulp Hummus combines tahini, freshly squeezed lemon juice, ground cumin, minced garlic, sea salt, and extra virgin olive oil in a high-speed blender to create a smooth base. Adding wet almond pulp leftover from homemade almond milk and water, the mixture is blended again until very smooth. Chilling the hummus for about two hours allows it to thicken and enhances flavor melding.
This hummus has a creamy texture supplemented by the almond pulp, providing body without chickpeas. It is served cold, often alongside sliced vegetables or crackers, with optional garnishes of olive oil and chopped parsley. This offers a nutty, slightly tangy, and garlicky flavor profile suitable for dips or spreads.
The preparation uses standard pantry ingredients and repurposes almond pulp to reduce waste. Storing leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator maintains freshness up to five days.
