A beautiful hummus that’s fun to make and double the tahini? Sign me up!
Step 1
Make the hummus. Add beans, juice from 1/2 lemon, cumin, paprika and salt to a high-speed blender. Add 4 tbsp each of tahini and water, as well, and blend on high. Use a tamper to mix well. The consistency should be airy and light. Taste for salt and acidity. Add to a serving bowl, and set aside.
Step 2
Make the beet tahini. In a small bowl, add juice from the second 1/2 lemon, beet powder and remaining 3 tbsp each of tahini and warm water. Mix thoroughly. Depending on how runny your tahini is, you may need more water to give the mixture a smooth liquid texture. Add more water as needed. Add it to the hummus bowl and have fun with the design!
