Observations

Chickpeas: For an even smoother and creamier result, you can peel your chickpeas. It can be tedious, but the result is worth it!

Sesame oil: This replaces tahini, the Lebanese sesame paste, a staple ingredient in traditional hummus.

What to eat it with? Traditionally, hummus is eaten with Lebanese bread or pita bread, types of flatbreads that are torn and folded to make a "spoon" for the hummus. However, you can also dip fresh veggies in it! ;-)

Storage: You can store hummus for about 1 week in an airtight container, covering it with a thin layer of olive oil to protect it well.

No food processor? A potato masher will do the trick. However, you cannot use a blender or mixer, as it will force you to add too much liquid, losing the delicate consistency of the hummus.
