Hummus

Directions:

Drain the beans and reserve the liquid. Process the beans until smooth in a food processor using the steel knife, or mash them well with a potato masher or fork. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. The mixture should be moist and spreadable. If it is too dry, add enough of the reserved bean liquid to achieve the desired consistency. Serve with crackers, pita bread, or as a filling in lavash rolls. (Makes about 2 cups)
