Roasted red pepper hummus

Preparation

• Puree the chickpeas, roasted pepper, yogurt, lemon juice, and cumin in a food processor or in a medium-sized bowl using an immersion blender.
• Taste and adjust salt, pepper and lemon juice.
  Add Tabasco at this point if using.
• Stir in fresh herbs.
• Variations:
  Add 2 tbsp of olive oil, pouring it in slowly while the hummus purees.
  Add up to 4 tbsp to achieve the consistency you like.
• Add garlic, starting with 1 clove.
  Taste before adding a second.
  Much will depend on the size of the clove and your personal preferences.
• If fresh garlic is too strong, add half a bulb of roasted garlic.
