Cubby's Hummus with Chili Edamame Recipe: Method

  1. Soak one cup of dry Chickpeas overnight in a large bowl of water.
  2. When ready, drain and place in medium size pot for cooking and cover with enough water so there is about 2 inches over them.
  3. Bring to the water boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1.5 – 2 hours
  4. Remove the skin. To remove the skin, after draining, take a few handfuls at a time and rub under running water above colander. Then discard the skins. Alternatively, you can use canned chickpeas, just give them a simmer for about 15 mins to soften.
  5. Puree the chickpeas when they are dry in a food processor, until they are a smooth paste.
  6. With food processor still running, add the ice cubes, tahini, lemon juice, garlic and salt in increment. Blend for a few minutes and taste, if needed add more tahini, lemon and salt.
  7. Boil edamame for two minutes. 
  8. Strain the chickpeas, add chili paste and mix well to combine.
  9. Transfer to a serving dish and top as you wish. For topping inspiration consider chili edamame or whole chickpeas with a drizzle of chili oil; grilled mushrooms and onion; spiced chicken or lamb.
