A delightful and creamy chickpea spread with a zesty lemon and herb flavor, perfect for dipping or spreading.
Prepare the ingredients by rinsing the chickpeas and chopping the parsley and scallions.
Rinsing canned chickpeas removes excess sodium and improves their flavor.
Add the parsley, scallions, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and water to the food processor.
Adding the liquid ingredients first helps the blending process.
Blend the ingredients until smooth, then add the chickpeas and blend again until the desired consistency is reached.
For a chunkier texture, pulse the chickpeas instead of blending continuously.
Transfer the spread to a serving bowl and garnish with a sprinkle of parsley or a drizzle of olive oil.
Serving the spread with a garnish enhances its visual appeal.
