Hummus Bisque

Prep 10 minutes Cooking 0 Hour-20 Minute Average 4 servings

Ingredients

Amount Ingredient
1 tablespoon Toasted Sesame Seeds
1/4 cups Organic Shallots
2 teaspoons Minced Garlic
1 teaspoons Cumin, Ground
1 tablespoon Sambal Oelek, Chng Kee's
2/3 teaspoons Smoked Paprika
2 cups Chickpeas
1/3 cups Lemon juice
3 cups Vegetable broth
1/2 cups Organic Tahini
1/4 cups Chopped Cilantro, for garnish

Steps

1 Heat the oil in a large pot.
2 Add the shallot, garlic, cumin, sambal oelek, paprika, and chickpeas.
3 Cook on medium heat, stirring often, until the shallot is tender, and the preparation is fragrant, about 4 minutes.
4 Add the lemon juice, stirring to combine.
5 Add the broth and bring to a boil.
6 Lower the heat, cover with a lid, and simmer for 10 minutes.
7 Add the tahini, stirring to combine. Note that the tahini might look curdled when you add it, but it will be okay after simmering and blending.
8 Cover with the lid and simmer for another 5 minutes.
9 Use a handheld blender and blend the mixture until smooth. Be careful: The liquid will be hot, so watch for spatters! You can also use a regular blender to purée the soup, just be careful while transferring the hot liquid. If you find the bisque a little thick for your taste once blended, add extra broth as needed.
10 Adjust the seasonings to taste and serve garnished with cilantro, parsley, cumin seeds, and lemon zest.
11 Leftovers can be slowly reheated by simmering in a small saucepan for about 6 minutes until heated through. Stir occasionally while reheating and be careful not to scorch what is a rather thick soup.

Add salt and white pepper to taste.
You can also add toasted cumin seeds and lemon zest for garnish (optional).
