Preparation method

Preparation and toasting

1

Toast the pine nuts in a dry pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, then set aside to cool.

2

Rinse and thoroughly drain the canned chickpeas. Transfer them to a large mixing bowl and coarsely mash with a fork or potato masher - leave some whole for a rustic texture.

Making the dressing

1

In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, freshly squeezed lemon juice, minced garlic, extra virgin olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and ground black pepper. If too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of cold water until you get a silky, creamy dressing.

Chef's tip

Lightly smashing the chickpeas is key, as the loosened interiors absorb the aromatic tahini dressing much better than leaving them completely whole.

When mixing tahini with water, it may thicken up at first, but with continuous stirring it turns into a lovely, smooth, and velvety cream.
