  2. Add lemon juice and run the food processor for about 1 minute.
  3. Next, add the garlic, olive oil, ground cumin, chickpeas, and about 1/2 tsp of salt to start.
  4. Run the processor for another minute. Then, stop to scrape the sides and to taste test whether more salt is needed.
  5. Run the processor another minute.

If you want your hummus creamier and less thick, add about 1-2 tbsp of water, and run the food processor a little longer.
