Ingredients
¾ cup dry garbanzo beans
¼ cup dried soybeans
1 bay leaf
1 onion, quartered
1 cup vegetable broth
3 cups water
2 cloves cloves garlic, crushed
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
black pepper to taste
¼ cup tahini
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
Directions
Rinse the garbanzos and soybeans, and place them in a pressure cooker along with the bay leaf and onion. Add vegetable broth and enough water to cover the beans by 1 inch (or follow the manufacturer's instructions for the minimum amount of liquid required).
Seal the lid and bring the pressure up to high; reduce the heat to low and cook, maintaining high pressure, for 1 hour. Allow the pressure to drop naturally.
Drain the beans, reserving the liquid. Place the beans in the bowl of a food processor. Add the garlic, lemon juice, soy sauce, black pepper, and tahini; process until smooth. (You may add some of the cooking liquid for a thinner consistency.) Scoop the mixture into a bowl, and mix in the parsley.
Cook's Notes
Add any other ingredients to make subtle changes in the taste of your hummus: I like roasted red peppers, sundried tomatoes, Parmesan, or scallions.
To make this on the stovetop, soak the beans overnight. Bring the beans, onion, and bay leaf to a boil; reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the beans are very tender, about 2 hours. Proceed with the recipe.
