Gut-Healthy Homemade Creamy Hummus
Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas (drained & rinsed)
- 2 tbsp tahini
- 2 tbsp pure sea moss gel
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 small garlic clove (roasted or raw)
- ½ tsp cumin
- ¼ tsp sea salt (adjust to taste)
Steps
- Add chickpeas, tahini, sea moss gel, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and salt to a food processor.
- Blend until smooth, pausing to scrape down the sides.
- Add 2–3 tbsp water (or chickpea aquafaba) gradually until desired creaminess is reached.
- Taste and adjust seasoning — more lemon for brightness, cumin for earthiness, or sea moss for thicker texture.
- Scoop into a bowl, drizzle with olive oil, add toppings and serve!
Why Add Sea Moss Gel?
- Balanced creaminess → chickpeas + tahini + sea moss create a silky, nutrient-dense base.
- Nutritional upgrade → sea moss adds minerals while keeping the recipe light on excess oil.
- Versatile & functional → works as a dip, sandwich spread, or salad topping with a boost of fiber and plant protein.
