Can I make hummus without tahini

YES... if you're not a fan of tahini or you just don't use it on a regular basis like I do....

Then by all means feel free to just leave it out. I personally love the flavor of it and use it fairly regularly.

Tahini is not only good in hummus but it also makes great salad dressings or even drizzled over roasted veggies.

So most of the time you'll find a jar of tahini in my house. 😁

How to make black bean hummus

You just want to start by draining and rinsing a can of beans...

I recommend squeezing fresh lemon juice for this and coarsely chopped garlic.

Then I like to remove the seeds from the jalapeno before putting it in the food processor , but if you like things even spicier you can leave the seeds in.

Next you'll add all this to the food processor with olive oil and tahini ( if using) and blend till smooth and creamy.

I love this hummus! One question though. About how long will this hummus keep in the refrigerator?

  Thanks Denise and this hummus should keep about 3-4 days in a covered container in the fridge.
