Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup Lupin Flour
- 1 ⅓ cups Water
- ⅓ cup Tahini
- 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 ½ tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 2 Garlic Cloves peeled and pressed or finely minced
- Salt
- Toppings Optional. See post for ideas.
Instructions
- In a medium pot, whisk together lupin flour and about half of the water, until it's a thick paste.
- Add remaining water, continue to whisk until smooth.
- Heat over medium high heat until bubbles start making their way to the surface.
- Reduce heat to low, and allow to simmer - stirring frequently - until thickened and smooth, about 5 minutes.
- Once time is up, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly as you proceed:
- In a food processor, blitz tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic until smooth.
- Add lupini mixture, blitz until smooth. If mixture is too thick, add water a little bit at a time until it reaches desired texture.
- Season with salt to taste.
- Chill until use - it will thicken a bit as it cools.
- Serve with a drizzle of olive oil on top, as well as any toppings you would like.
Notes
See blog post for info on dealing with the thickness of the hummus - water amount is approximate, and the needed amount can vary between brands of lupin flour,
If you’re planning to serve this hummus warm, I recommend starting with 1 ¼ cup of water, instead of 1 ⅓ cup.
