Soybean Hummus

While hummus that is originally from middle east, it's difficult to get chick peas in Japan. So I use soy beans instead of it, and make Japanese-style hummus. Enjoy to eat to spread it on sliced bread, fresh vegetable sticks and so on.

200 g steamed soybeansYou can boiled soy beans too.

1 tbsp sesame paste or tahini

5 g garlic

2 tbsp soy milk

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 ⅓ tbsp olive oil

½ tsp sea salt

1 pinch chopped parsley (for topping) or dried parsleyIt's optional.

1 pinch paprika powder (for topping)It's optional.

Prepare all the ingredients (I forgot to take a picture of soy milk).

Grate the garlic.

Mix ingredients

Blend soy beans and soy milk with a hand blender until they get small peaces.

Add the sesame paste, grated garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and sea salt.

Blend them until smooth.

If the paste is too hard, add more soy milk.

Serve it on a plate, and Pour some olive oil (not included in recipe) on it. Then add the chopped parsley and paprika powder if you like. Spread the paste on sliced bread or any food you like, and enjoy to eat!
