Raw Hummus (w/ sprouted chickpeas)

Raw Hummus

1 cup chick pea sprouts
Juice of 1 lemon or lime
2 Tablespoons fresh orange juice (I used 2 small clementines)
1 clove garlic
2 Tablespoons raw tahini
Optional seasonings: ground cumin, spike or sea salt to taste, chives, paprika, cayenne pepper. Blend all of the ingredients. Add water to thin to desired consistency.
This recipe came from this wesite: http://www.living-foods.com/recipes/rawhummus.html

---------
I doubled the recipe and added salt, cumin, cayenne, paprika and garnished with italian parsley and olive oil. Overall, I would say this is pretty good. I like the sweetness from the orange/clementine juice.

Thanks! Actually, I thought you had to soak the chickpeas in water rather than in a colander which would drain the water right out. Looks like it worked okay. I've never sprouted anything, so I'm speaking from inexperience. ;-)

no, you first soak the beans for 8-12 hours... then you drain and let them stay in the colander for the next 4 - 5 days or so. They must be rinsed several times a day during the time they are in the colander to stay moist but not allowed to get moldy. The colander makes it easy to rinse and also keeps the beans from sitting in any water. Hope that helps! : )
