Dill Pickle Hummus

Gather the ingredients for dill pickle hummus

Miriam Hahn/Tasting Table
Start with a few cans of garbanzo beans (aka chickpeas). In the produce section, be sure to get minced garlic. The other main ingredients in this recipe are dill pickles and fresh dill. To add even more flavor, pick up some tahini (or substitute in peanut butter for sweetness) and lemon to use for its juice.

Additionally, you will need olive oil, cumin, and salt. Last but not least, you may need water to thin out the hummus.

Rinse the garbanzo beans and cut the veggies

Miriam Hahn/Tasting Table
Begin by taking out your garbanzo beans. Open each can and place the beans in a colander. Run them under water to rinse and remove the excess juice. Set them to the side for a moment.

Then, take out a cutting board and a sharp knife. Grab the garlic, pickles, and dill and chop them up. “For chopping, you can just do a rough chop since everything is going in the food processor for a thorough blend,” Hahn shares. “I like to pre-chop them roughly, just so you don’t end up with a large chunk of something that avoided the food processor blade somehow.”

By the way, dill is also great for you! “​​Fresh dill, like all fresh herbs, offers many health benefits. First, they kick up the antioxidant count in whatever you are eating,” Hahn shares. “Dill, in particular, is good for digestion, insomnia, and immunity. Plus, it is super easy to grow, so you always have it on hand!”
