Fat-Free Hummus Preparation

Fat free hummus is easy. I do it about once a week. I use an Ornish recipe from _Everyday Cooking_ but add about 1 T of tahini. I figure at 7.5 g fat/T with 32 T in this recipe that’s 1/4 g fat/T and I can handle it since I eat no dairy. Drain chickpeas, reserving juice. Do not rinse. Transfer peas to a food processor or blender and blend with 1/2 c reserved chickpea juice, lemon juice, cumin, garlic and cayenne. Add parsley and red onion and pulse briefly just to mix. I usually start with a smaller amount of the juice, adding more to get the consistency I want. I found 1/2 c to be too much. By the way, hummus is caro here, too. It’s even cheaper to make at home if you cook the beans yourself. Posted to fatfree digest by Kate Bilinski <twix@sover.net> on Feb 06, 1998
