Instant Pot Hummus<\/p>\nInstant Pot Hummus<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
8 oz. (1 1\/4 C.) dried chickpeas<\/p>\n
1 1\/2 tsp. kosher salt, plus more as needed<\/p>\n
Juice of 1 lemon, plus more as needed<\/p>\n
2 garlic cloves, grated on a Microplane or chopped<\/p>\n
1\/4 tsp. ground cumin<\/p>\n
1\/3 C. tahini<\/p>\n
Ice water, as needed<\/p>\n
2 T. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving<\/p>\n
Sweet or hot paprika, for serving<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Pour the chickpeas and 1 tsp. of the salt into the pressure cooker and add water to cover by 1 inch. Cook on high pressure for 50 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally. The chickpeas should be very soft. If not, cook at high pressure for another 5 minutes, then manually release the pressure. Drain the chickpeas. Meanwhile, place the lemon, garlic, cumin, and remaining 1\/2 tsp. salt in a blender or food processor and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes without processing. Then add the tahini and process to combine; you\u2019ll end up with a thick paste. Add 2 T. ice water and blend it in, and then continue adding ice water, 1 T. at a time, blending until the tahini has thinned down to a sauce consistency. Add the drained chickpeas and the olive oil to the tahini and blend to combine, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender jar as necessary. If the hummus looks too thick, add more ice water, 1 T. at a time. Taste, and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Then scrape the hummus into a serving dish and top it with a generous drizzle of olive oil and a liberal sprinkling of paprika.<\/p>\n
