Why This Recipe Works

Jarred roasted red peppers provide a concentrated sweetness and bright color to this dip without any extra cooking. Patting the peppers thoroughly dry is essential to maintaining a thick, creamy texture.


Instructions

1

Combine the chickpeas, roasted red peppers, lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, garlic, and salt in a food processor.

2

Process the mixture until completely smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl once or twiceβ€”the texture should be uniform with no visible bits of pepper.

3

Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice if the flavors need brightening.

4

Transfer to a shallow serving bowl and use the back of a spoon to create a small well in the center.

5

Top with the toasted almonds and parsley, then drizzle the olive oil into the well. Serve with pita or fresh vegetables.
