HOW TO MAKE BEETROOT POWDER HUMMUS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
STEP 1: STEAM CHICKPEAS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You can definitely used canned chick peas in this recipe. But, it is more traditional to make it with home made chick peas. And, the home made chick peas taste a lot better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I like to soak my dry chick peas overnight or for up to 3 days before I cook them. This helps to soften the tough fibers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, I drain and rinse my chick peas. I add them to my instant pot along with filtered water. I cover the soaked beans with an inch of water above them. Then I sprinkle a generous amount of smoked paprika on top. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just cover your instant pot and pressure cook them for approximately 25 minutes. Use the natural release method to ensure that they are in the steam and become very soft. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
STEP 2: MAKE PINK HUMMUS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Once you have your chickpeas ready, all you have to do is add all the ingredients from the recipe below to a high powered blender! I blend mine for about 5 minutes. I turn it off once to scrape down the sides and get any chunks into the mixture to blend up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And that is it! You can top your hummus with traditional spices like cumin and paprika. And if you want to have the full middle eastern hummus experience, add fresh olive oil and roasted pine nuts on top! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
