description
The hummus, from the Arab culinary tradition, is a sauce based on chickpeas and tahini cream with innumerable possibilities of use: excellent to spread on toasted bread, to accompany vegetables or as in today's proposal to enrich a first course.
preparation
step 1
To prepare the cream based on legumes, drain well chickpeas already boiled (alternatively you can use the dried ones that, instead, will be previously cooked).
step 2
Transfer them to a mixer and add the rest of the ingredients (except for parsley, olives, tomatoes and water). Chop everything until obtaining a smooth and lump-free consistency, to which the cooking water will be added for a more creamy result.
step 3
Cook the pasta in plenty of salted water. Once ready, drain and stir in adding the hummus of chickpeas, tomatoes, black olives and finely chopped parsley to complete the dish.
