  • Skins or no skins. First, decide whether you’d like to remove the skins from your chickpeas or leave them as-is. Once your chickpeas are ready, add them to the bowl of a food processor or a blender.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients. Next, add some chickpea liquid from the can, garlic, tahini, lemon juice and salt.
  • Blend it up. Pulse or blend the ingredients for about 60 seconds or until everything is completely smooth. If anything is getting stuck or appears too thick, simply add more chickpea liquid 2 tablespoons at a time.
