Some of the measurements in this recipe are a bit conservative. You’re gonna wanna double the salt and the oil. Also double the garlic, but steam roast or boil the second half of the garlic cloves before adding.
Be sure to put all the garlic in the food processor first and mince it up before adding anything else.
Then add the salt, the lemon juice and an ounce of the tahini and pulse that in. if you’re using bottled lemon juice increased by 50%. Sometimes I use key lime juice instead, delicious.
Then while running the food processor on medium speed, drizzle in half the aqua fava, i.e. the liquid from one of the cans, followed by the oil. Then you can add the chickpeas and the oil and finish it with two minutes on high.. I also like to add a teaspoon of red cayenne pepper and a teaspoon or two of cumin.
