- While processor is running, add ice cubes, tahini, salt, and lemon juice. Blend for about 4 minutes or so. Check, and if the consistency is too thick still, run processor and slowly add a little hot water. Blend until you reach desired silky smooth consistency.
- Spread in a serving bowl and add a generous drizzle of Early Harvest EVOO. Add a few chickpeas to the middle, if you like. Sprinkle sumac on top. Enjoy with warm pita wedges and your favorite veggies.

Steps:
- For the hummus: Combine the chickpeas and baking soda in a large bowl or pot and cover with at least double their volume of water. Transfer to the refrigerator and soak for 18 hours.
- Drain the chickpeas and rinse thoroughly in cold water. Place the chickpeas in a large pot with the whole head of garlic and cover with water. Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer the chickpeas over low heat until very tender, about 3 hours. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid and 1 cup of whole chickpeas. Discard the garlic bulb.
- Combine the remaining chickpeas, the sesame paste, grape seed oil and lemon juice in a food processor and puree to a smooth, creamy consistency, adding reserved cooking liquid as needed. Season with salt and cumin.
- For the tehina: Combine the sesame paste, water, lemon juice and garlic in a blender and blend at high speed until smooth. Blend in the olive oil. If the puree is too tight, adjust the consistency with additional warm water. Season with salt and cumin.
- For serving: Spoon the hummus into a large shallow bowl. Create a well in the center, using the back of a spoon, pushing the hummus to the edges of the bowl. Toss together the reserved whole chickpeas with the tehina in a mixing bowl and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Spoon the dressed chickpeas into the well in the center of the hummus. Garnish the hummus with the olive oil and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Drain chickpeas.
- Place chickpeas, tahini, cumin, salt, lemon juice, garlic, hot sauce, and olive oil into food processor.
- Process, adding water and lemon juice as needed, the amount may vary. Keep them even in ratio. Personally I like the lemon flavor so do that stronger. The consistency should be a smooth dip or thin mash potatoes.
- When throughly mixed and at desired consistency add spinach flakes and pulse till blended.
- You can serve on a plate with a dip in the center and spiced olive oil poured over it or plain olive oil and sprinkled with paprika. Serve in a pita with olives, feta cheese, falafel, and cucumbers or just on crackers or Matzah.
