Notes

– Use good-quality olive tapenade for the best flavor.

– If the hummus is too thick, add a little more olive oil or water to thin it out.

– Taste the hummus before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed.

– The hummus will keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

– For a smooth texture, make sure to blend the hummus until it is completely smooth.

– You can also use canned chickpeas, but make sure to rinse them well before adding them to the food processor.
