Ingredients

  1. 4 cups large dried Lebanese garbanzo beans
  2. 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  3. 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  4. 4 cups sesame tahini, or more as needed
  5. 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, soak the dried beans in 6 cups water overnight.
  2. Discard water and rinse the beans in fresh water. Add beans to a stockpot with 6 more cups water. On high heat, bring water to a boil and cook, turning down the heat to medium when foam appears at the top, about 30 minutes. Cover pot and cook until beans are soft, an additional 15 minutes. Drain and cool beans overnight in the fridge.
  3. Add beans to a food processer with a handful of ice, the lemon juice, garlic, sesame tahini and salt. Grind in food processor until it has a pudding-type consistency. Garnish with olive oil, paprika and sumac. Can be served with pita bread or carrots.

Great recipe. But is “4 cups sesame tahini, or more as needed’ correct?

I saw this 3D show and the hummus is excellent but I’d REALLY like to have the Fatoush cafe falafel recipe…Any ideas on how to obtain it ?
