I love, love, LOVE roasted garlic, and it’s so easy to
make! This quick, easy, make-ahead dip
is great for barbeque get-togethers or, in my case, a healthy snack for my
one-year-old who loves to dip things.
You will need a food processer (Cuisinart) or a Vitamix for this recipe.
Roasted Garlic Hummus
1-14 oz can of garbanzo beans
1/4 cup sesame tahini, unsalted
2 medium size heads of garlic, roasted (see below for how to
roast garlic) and peeled
2 tbsp fresh sqeezed lemon juice
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp sea salt
3 sprigs of parsley (optional)
Trim stems off parsley.
Drain garbanzo beans. Combine all ingredients in a food processer or
Vitamix and blend until creamy. Let
chill before serving.
How to roast garlic:
Cut the top quarter inch off the head of garlic (the pointy
end). Place on sheet of aluminum foil,
cut end up. Drizzle with olive oil and a
little sea salt. Close aluminum foil
over garlic to create a loose sealed enclosure.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
I highly recommend letting the garlic cool before handling it.
