Creamy, smooth and slightly smoky - this hummus made with black garlic sea salt hits all the right notes. The full recipe is below, but if you don't want to make your own hummus, simply add charred or roasted capsicums, smoked paprika and Black Garlic Sea Salt to your favourite plain hummus and blend together.
If you do level up a plain hummus this way, you may also need to add some extra oil or water.
You can make charred capsicums yourself or you could try the jarred pre-charred capsicum slices - but rinse off the brine first.

Ingredients
400gm can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
50g tahini
15ml lemon juice
140g charred capsicum pieces
-
20ml extra virgin olive oil or Olive Oil infused with Black Garlic
35ml water
2 ½ tsp smoked paprika powder
-
2 ½ tsp Black Garlic Sea Salt
Directions
Here’s a link if you want to roast your own capsicum. To remove the skins more easily, put them in a covered bowl once cooked, so they will steam a bit.
Place all the ingredients in a bullet blender or food processor and process until smooth.
Adjust seasoning if needed.
Top with a drizzle of oil, sprinkle of paprika, and an extra sprinkle of black garlic sea salt before serving.
Recipe Note
This hummus is great for dipping veges or bread as part of a Mediterranean spread.
