Decked-the-Fuck-out Hummus

I brought this to my aunt & uncle's for Christmas this year. None of the carnivores ate it. Dicks.


Ingredients

1 cup dried chickpeas (or 1 19 oz can, you lazy bastard)
1 head of garlic, roasted and squeezed out
minced fresh rosemary (like a tsp or something)
a little extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice (1/4 cup each?)
some tahini (maybe a tbsp)
kosher salt (to taste)
sliced almonds
kalamata olives
paprika

Directions


Cover chickpeas with 3" of water and soak over night. Drain, cover again, and boil for about an hour, or until they are tender. Drain and set aside to cool.


Blend the first six ingredients, garnish with the last three. Make that shit pop. It's hummus. Not hard.


Serve with pita bread; or, recreate your favorite scene from Two Girls, One Cup.


Suggested Album Pairing


Cosmic Christmas, Eban Schletter. Dude from Spongebob Squarepants and Dead Man's Bones made an album about a military satellite that discovers the true meaning of Christmas. And his primary instrument is a theramin. I've actually never heard this album, it just sounds awesome. If you know where I can get it lemme know.
