  • 2 medium ripe avocados
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) olive oil, plus extra for garnish

How to Cook Chickpeas from Scratch


Want extra creaminess and flavor? Here’s how to cook dried chickpeas:

  1. Soak 1 lb (453g) of dried chickpeas overnight in plenty of water with 1 tbsp (15g) of baking soda.
  2. Drain and rinse. Add fresh water to cover them and another 1 tbsp (15g) of baking soda.
  3. Cook on medium-high heat for 45–50 minutes until tender. Skim off any foam.
  4. Rinse well and let cool. Peel if desired.
  5. Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 10 days, or freeze in portions.

Notes

Tips for the Creamiest Hummus

  • Peel the chickpeas if you have time—removing the skins gives a silkier texture.
  • Use ice-cold water for blending. It helps emulsify and fluff up the hummus.
    Fresh, ripe avocados are key—soft but not mushy.
