Cargo Signature Hummus
Sprinkled with jewel-pink pomegranate seeds, this savory chickpea dip is loved by everybody who tries it. Here’s how it’s made at Cargo. INGREDIENTS Dried chickpeas, 1 cup Bicarbonate of soda, 1½ teaspoons Tahini paste, 6 tablespoons Juice of 1 lemon or more to taste
Garlic, 3 cloves, crushed A pinch of cumin powder Ice cubes Salt Extra virgin olive oil
1. Place the chickpeas in a bowl and cover with twice the volume of cold water. Stir in 1 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and leave to soak for 24 hours. 2. Drain the chickpeas, rinse well and place in a large pan. Cover with cold water and add the rest of the bicarbonate of soda. Bring the water to the boil, then turn down the heat and simmer gently until the chickpeas are tender – they need to be easy to mush and almost falling apart. Add more water if they seem to be boiling dry. 3. Leave them to cool down in the water then drain well, setting aside a spoonful of chickpeas as a garnish. 4. Place the chickpeas in a food mixer, add the tahini paste, lemon juice, garlic, and cumin powder and add some ice cubes. Blend until the chickpeas are mixed smoothly. For seasoning, add another pinch of cumin powder, lemon juice and salt. 5. Tip into a bowl, and when ready to serve, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and garnish with the reserved chickpeas.
