Another versatile use for our Vita-Prep 3 is to create silky smooth purees. We need the power of our Vita-Prep 3 as well as access to the blending container to push our ingredients down into the blades. We'll start by building this hummus recipe with a little bit of olive oil, some lemon juice to create that liquid base, we can actually use raw sesame seeds. We don't have to use expensive tahini because we're going to ground this down at the same time that we're blending everything else up. A touch of cumin. Garlic, we're going to add one peeled garlic clove to this, and then our garbanzo beans.

This will take roughly around 30 to 45 seconds to complete and should end up with a silky smooth puree of hummus. And there you have it, our hummus.
