Ingredients

• 1.5 cups dry garbanzo beans
• 2 tablespoons tahini
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 2 lemons , juiced
• 4 cloves garlic , crushed or to taste
• 1 cup filtered or spring water
• 1 pinch paprika

Instructions

1. 1 Soak beans for 24 hours. Drain, and let sit for 2 to 3 days until beans' sprouts are about 1/2-inch long. Rinse beans once or twice a day.
2. 2 Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Remove from heat, and let stand for 1 minute. Place sprouted beans in hot water and let sit for 1 minute. Drain. If you do not do this step, hummus will be awful.
3. 3 Place sprouted beans into the container of a large food processor. Add tahini, sea salt, lemon juice, and garlic. Process until smooth, adding water if necessary. It will take 3 to 5 minutes to blend. Let sit in the food processor for 5 minutes to allow beans to absorb as much of water as possible. If too thick, add more water, and blend again. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Spoon into a serving dish and garnish with paprika.
