Over the last weekend, Alex and I walked over to one of his friend’s apartments down the road for a little graduation send off. It was a nice little time, with a few drinks, some games, and lots of snacks. While I was busy munching away on peanut M&Ms, Alex was really enjoying the garlic hummus. For whatever reason, it tasted a bit like chemicals to me, but it reminded me how much I love a good hummus, so I immediately got into the kitchen a few days later and made some of my own.
It just so happened that I had some tahini (sesame seed paste) stashed away in the fridge, so I was all set. I roasted up a few bulbs of garlic (a great method post here) – one for the hummus, plus a few extras to toss into dishes for dinner and just to munch on. I love garlic. Especially when it’s roasted. Alex is a huge fan, too, so I figured we needed a lot. I buy great big bags of garlic at a time, so we rarely run out. I also made some seeded crackers that we fell in love with, which I’ll be sharing in a later post!
