Notes and Tips

You can store the hummus in the refrigerator, in a closed container, for a couple of days.

Adjust the amount of spices to your taste. Garlic can be omitted or replaced with garlic powder.

You can use either extra virgin olive oil or seed oil (peanut, sunflower, or sesame).

If you can’t find tahini, you can omit it… you won’t get hummus, but a simple chickpea and beet cream that will still be very tasty.

For convenience, I used pre-cooked beets, which can be found in all supermarkets in the refrigerated section. However, if you want to use fresh red beets, wash them thoroughly to remove any soil residues, place them in a pot with cold water and a pinch of salt, and cook them on low heat for about 45 minutes.
