Ingredients
- 3 cups peeled chickpeas (cooked or canned, if canned, rinse well)
- 3 tablespoons Tahini
- 1/4 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (optional for an extra tang, omit if vegan)

Notes
- For a velvety smooth texture, you'll need to peel the chickpeas before pureeing them.
- Peeled or not, a high-speed food processor will always deliver the best results in terms of texture.
- For this recipe, you can use canned or cooked, dried chickpeas.
- Don't go overboard with garlic and cumin as those flavors can be overpowering.
- This recipe is the base of endless variations, so feel free to add olives, red bell pepper or harissa.
