Spicy Black Bean Hummus

"A Latin American twist on the classic Mediterranean snack. I never buy store-bought hummus anymore, as this homemade version I makes tastes so much better! The amount of servings really depends on what you'll be using this for- I use it as a dip with crackers, a spread on pita sandwiches, and I even stuff it into chicken breasts. The hummus also seems to keep for as long as week in the fridge."

  1. Enjoyed this hummus very much, although my hummus needed more liquid for the blender to work; next time I would make sure that I had 88g or about 3 fl. oz. of lime juice, as my limes may have been a little dry. I added more olive oil, although I toyed with adding sesame oil or Chinese hot red chilie oil for the additional amount. I used only 1 jalapeno so it wouldn't overwhelm a lactating mama and her 19-mo.-old daughter, who go ape over hummus. Thank you, Pawel. Made for Rookie Recipe Tag.
     
  2. Delicious hummus - a great snack to have around the house to serve with veggies and/or blue corn tortilla chips which are our favorite. The flavors were just right; although I did use less jalapenos (used pickled jalapenos) and since my garlic cloves were fairly large -- I only used 3. Otherwise, I stayed with the recipe instructions and the result was really delicious. Will definitely keep this recipe handy as we always keep a batch of hummus around the house. Made for PRMR, January, 2014.
     
  3. Spicy and tasty hummus! I always have a jar of jalapenos around so that's what I used for the peppers, otherwise made as directed. I really like the lime/cumin flavor combination in this. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
