Beet Hummus

Ingredients:


- 500 grams (1.1 pounds) cooked, peeled, and cooled beets, about 2 medium
 
- 70 grams (2.5 ounces) tahini (sesame paste), about 3 tablespoons
 
- 1 clove garlic
 
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more as needed
 
- 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
 
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin (I grind my own so it's quite vivid in flavor; if yours is pre-ground and/or old, you may want to use more)
 
- 1/2 teaspoon salt



Directions: 


-Cut the beets into chunks and put them in the bowl of a blender or food processor.

-Add the tahini, garlic, oil, lemon juice, cumin, and salt, and process until completely smooth.

-Add a little more oil as needed to get a smooth consistency. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

-Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to develop.

-Serve with crackers, pita triangles, or toasted slices of baguette.
