Instructions
  1. Soak the chickpeas in a large bowl in cold water overnight. There should be 5 times more water than in chickpeas. It will increase significantly overnight. In the morning, pour the chickpeas with a fresh portion of cold water (1:5), bring to a boil and leave to simmer for an hour. At the end of cooking, add salt to taste. Then let the chickpeas cool completely. Keep the broth for yourself.
  2. For tahini (sesame paste): in a dry frying pan, dry and lightly brown the sesame seeds, stirring constantly.
  3. In a blender, mix sesame and olive oil. The mixture should be homogeneous, fluid, with the consistency of condensed milk.
  4. For hummus: grind garlic, chickpeas, lemon juice, soy sauce, salt, pepper, tahini in a blender, pour in a little broth. Grind, gradually adding a decoction of chickpeas, achieving the desired density.
  5. Now let’s add some flavor! Divide the resulting hummus into 4 parts. For the red color: chop coarsely chopped bell pepper in a blender, add smoked paprika and 1/4 part of the hummus base. Grind everything until smooth, adding the necessary broth and salt.
  6. For the greens: Put the parsley leaves and 1/4 of the hummus base in a blender. Grind until smooth, adding the necessary broth and salt.
  7. To prepare the yellow: Mix 1/4 of the hummus base and turmeric in a blender. We will leave the last part of hummus as it is.
  8. Place the hummus in layers in a glass bowl. Let cool completely in the refrigerator and serve. Traditionally, hummus is served with lavash, pita or bread.
