I used 2 large cloves of garlic and it was too overpowering. I even used another lemon and added some olive oil. Next time I would use a different recipe or roast the garlic instead. I love garlic but the raw garlic was too much.

In reply to Ann. You can make hummus without using Tahiti, I just leave it out. I also like to boil the chick peas with lemons and garlic before I process it. I reserve some of the liquid and add as needed. When you get the consistency you prefer, put in a serving dish and drizzle with your favorites olive oil.

In reply to Virginia Vivier. Virginia, you can try it that way if you'd like. There are so many different ways to make beet hummus. Just find the one that works best for you.

Look for other vegetables that whip nice after gently cooked, such as sweet potatoes, organic peas, butternut squash, and be sure to add adequate olive oil oil in your blend with the beets…if you must avoid legumes. Also could try raw kale instead of the beets, or raw avacado and cucumber or raw zuchini… make small batches till you get the right recipe for you! Take notes as you mix each batch, so you get the right proportions noted… for me that is vital lest they scramble in my mind from experiment to experiment! :-) Have fun!

Hummus it to the Middle East menu as Refried beans are to Mexican cuisine. Ever tried a hummus chalupa with tabouli topped with a little vinaigrette – delicious.
I like to experiment and came up with:
In food processor add 1 can drained can of chickpeas, 2 tablespoons of garlic paste, 1 tablespoon of ginger paste, tablespoon of pesto of choice ( sundried tomato, basil and pinenuts), half teaspoon of sea salt. Begin to process adding olive oil and little water to develope desired consistency. Serve with warm pita bread drizzled with olive oil and cracked black pepper. No pita bread no problem try grilling a flour tortilla. Now that is fusion cooking. Hits the spot. Maybe a glass of Red Wine to top it off.

Searching for something new. I grill eggplant but what else. Eggplant spinach chick pea dip? Turnips and that family. What to do with the odd looking veggies most pick up and put back down.. Here is a tip: I like to juice and I use an old juicer that produces much excess pulp. I use this pulp to make soup and even patty it up and grill it. Maybe mix in a little tuna. Just a tip if you want to pass it on.

Ann you do not have to se tahini, use olive oil,lemon juice and salt whip in with garlic,beets an chic peas. I have not made hummus with beets but have used red peppers .

I am going to try it with beets. Any one using tahini should take care and blend it with the olive oil,little water and lemon juice so it wil be creamy otherwise will be thick and you have to keep stopping to mix the chic peas. You can sprinkle cut fine parsley on top. Also brown meat with onions (cut very small,diced) brown pine nuts ,then spread the hummus on a platter. Place the meat mixture(seasoned with salt,pepper sprinkle of allspice) spreading on top of hummus, great for any time,appetizer or meal.
My son loves it and just scoops up with a spoon .

Doesn’t baking the beets cook out their nutritional value? Wouldn’t it be better to pulverize them in blender?

Can you eat other seeds or nuts? Perhaps you can substitute sunflower seed butter, almond or peanut butter for the tahini.

i have a high sensitivity to sesame so i can’t have tahini. is there an ingredient that would be a good substitute to use in this recipe?
