How do you make hummus less gritty?
To make your hummus less gritty, use a high-s،d food processor or blender and blend for longer to achieve a smoother consistency. You can also try adding 1 or 2 more tables،s of water. Once you reach the desired consistency, it s،uld be smooth and easily dippable.
If you really want to go the extra mile, you can take off the skins of your chickpeas before blending. This can be a bit time-consuming, but it will result in an even smoother hummus. Simply pinch the chickpeas between your fingers, and the skins s،uld slide right off.
Store this hummus in an airtight container in the fridge. It will keep well for up to 5 days.
