Instructions
Puree ingredients in the bowl of a food processor with a fitted blade, adding water through the feeding tube to make a thick, fluffy spread.
Season with salt and additional cumin.
Tips: Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Notes:
If you have the juice that accumulated from the roasted peppers, add to the ingredients in the food processor and puree.
Hummus can also be made by mashing the ingredients together using a fork or a potato masher. This yields a rusticstyle version that is thick and fluffy but not as smooth.
