hummus

i recently sent this recipe to megan of not martha noteriety. i figured it wasn't fair letting no one else have the recipe so here it is:

• a can of chickpeas (rinsed and drained)
• tahini (about 1 tablespoon)
• lemon juice (to taste, but about 1 large lemon's worth)
• 2 cloves of garlic (this is a fairly garlicky version, you might wantto adjust)
• olive oil (a shake)

put all the ingredients into a food processor, food process and adjust lemon juice and tahini to taste.

add salt and pepper if wanted.

put into a bowl and drizzle a little of olive oil over the top and add a sprinkle of cayenne pepper.

this is so delicious, whenever i have to suddenly produce dip for friends dropping by, picnics or sudden dip cravings i just make it.

and it's yummy served with eggplant dip and thick greek yoghurt and
warm turkish bread.

I would like to know if you can freeze homemade hummus. I would appreciate it very much. Thanks.
