With just a few simple tricks, you really can make creamy smooth hummus at home and yes, I really do think it’s better than store-bought. This hummus can be served with vegetable (carrot, cucumber) sticks or nachos for party snacks.

Steps

In the bowl of mixer, assemble the tahini and lemon squeeze and process for 1 minute, rub the sides and base of the bowl at that point procedure for 30 seconds more. This additional time helps "whip" or "cream" the tahini, makes the hummus to smooth and rich.

Add of the chickpeas to the mixer and process for 1 minute. Scrape sides and bottom of the bowl, then add remaining chickpeas and process until thick and quite smooth; 1 to 2 minutes.

Most likely the hummus will be too thick or still have tiny bits of chickpea. To fix this, slowly add 2 to 3 tablespoons of water until you reach the perfect consistency.
