From May, 17 2006. It's hummus. Spread it on stuff. Especially tasty in a grilled cheese sandwich.
--------------------------
8 oz dry chickpeas (garbonzos)
3T tahini
1/3 cup lemon juice
5 cloves garlic
1/8 oz dry tomatoes (ground in coffee grinder)
1t basil
1t turmeric
5 "bird's eye" thai peppers (the tiny ones)
black pepper to taste
follow the soaking instructions on the bag of chickpeas, then cook them for an hour and a half or so, drain them (keeping the water) and dump them in a food processor that has the chopping blades attached. add everything else and turn the processor on after pulsing a few times. while it's on, add the leftover water until it's got the consistency that you want (i like mine a little thick). this is a mildly modified version from what's in "The Joy of Cooking".
