    Yes, I soak the chickpeas overnight, I use like 1 cup dry. More than that and my food processor has a bad time

    You can probably find a recipe on the web to help with the numbers. Salt, paprika, sumac, and pepper are all like, a lil dash “to taste” Everything else is real amounts. I’d say chickpeas:tahini is probably like a 6:1 ratio? Tahini:lemon maybe 1:1?

    Again, I just kinda eyeball it based on consistency and taste.

    So, apparently 1 cup of dry chickpeas is 3 cups cooked so next time I do this, I’ll try to measure amounts and write up a recipe, but here’s my guess. Try it and lemme know how it goes!


    3 cups cooked chickpeas (cooked with 1tsp baking soda.)

    I guess half a cup tahini

    juice of 1 big lemon and a little shred of zest

    A solid “gluggle” of olive oil

    2-3 cloves garlic, depending on size (all the recipes i see online say 1 clove lmao no)

    like a teaspoon of cumin

    Aquafaba, amount will vary, use to correct texture

    salt, smoked paprika, sumac, pepper to taste
