Homemade Hummus with Olive Salsa

Step 1 In food processor or blender, combine chick peas, olive oil, lemon juice, tahini, garlic, 1 tablespoon water, cumin, paprika and Adobo. Puree until mixture is smooth and creamy, about one minute. Step 2 In medium bowl, combine olives, capers, tomatoes, shallots, parsley and hot sauce, if desired. This should make approximately two cups of salsa. Step 3 Spoon hummus into serving dish, smoothing it and creating a hollow in the center for the salsa. Spoon salsa into hollow. (As an alternate presentation, layer hummus, and then salsa, alternating layers, in a shallow dish.) Drizzle with olive oil, if desired. Serve with crackers. More Cooking Tips
