Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Hummus: Measure out 1/4 cup of your favorite store-bought or homemade hummus.
- Lemon Juice: Squeeze fresh lemon juice until you have 1 tablespoon.
- Dill: If using fresh dill, finely chop to measure 1 teaspoon. If using dried, measure 1 teaspoon directly.
- Garlic: Peel and mince the garlic cloves until you have 1 1/2 tablespoons.
- Water: Measure 1/8 tablespoon (approximately 1.77g) of water.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, start by adding the 1/4 cup of hummus.
- Pour in the 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
- Add the 1 teaspoon of dill.
- Mix in the 1 1/2 tablespoons of minced garlic.
- Finally, add the 1/8 tablespoon of water.
- Use a spoon or a small whisk to mix all the ingredients together until they are well combined. Ensure the garlic and dill are evenly distributed throughout the hummus.
- If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can gradually add a little more water, 1/4 teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired texture.
- Taste the hummus and adjust seasonings if necessary. You might want to add a pinch of salt for additional flavor or more lemon juice for extra tanginess.
- Transfer the garlic herb hummus to a serving bowl.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh dill or a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
- Serve with pita bread, fresh vegetables, or as a spread in sandwiches and wraps.
Tips:
- Use fresh lemon juice for a brighter and fresher taste.
- Adjust the amount of garlic according to your preference. If you love a strong garlic flavor, feel free to add more!
- If the hummus is too thick, add a little more water, one teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
- Experiment with additional herbs like parsley or cilantro to create your customized flavor profile.
- Serve the hummus with fresh vegetables, pita bread, or use as a spread in your favorite wraps and sandwiches.
