Hummus Recipe
Hummus is an inexpensive, high-fiber and protein-packed food, yet only a few home chefs dabble in this dip. This Middle Eastern mixture of chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans, and tahini has endless possibilities, so there's no reason for hummus humdrum.

- Secure lid and select "Sauce" or blend on Medium Low (speed 3 or 4) for 30 seconds.
The Twister jar has tines that are constantly moving which help to push the mixture back down to the blade and keep things moving. The mixture needs a little more help when done in the WildSide+ jar.
How much sesame seeds if I don’t use tahini? Thank you.
You can use sesame seeds instead :)
Just to clarify, it says 2 tbsp of tahini in this recipe, so I can substitute 2 tbsp of sesame seeds? Thanks Blendtec!
Hi, Pamela! You can use the same amount of sesame seeds as you would tahini. Happy blending!
