Directions

Soak chickpeas overnight.
Rinse and discard water, place beans in a pot, cover with 3 cups of water and bring to a boil for 45-60 minutes until done.
Drain and set aside cooking water, rinse under cold water for 2 minutes.
Put sesame seeds and olive oil in a food processor and blend.
Add cooled beans and seasoning and blend in a food processor, gradually add some of the reserved cooking water until hummus is at desired creaminess.
While the beans are cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté until garlic is tender. Add spinach, cook and stir until wilted, about 4 minutes.
Add garlic spinach mixture and artichokes into the food processor with the hummus base and blend to desired consistency.

Recipe Note

We like to make our hummus as creamy as possible, so removing as many of the skins as you can is important. For Step #3, we place the beans in a colander (saving the cooking water of course) and begin to rinse the beans under cool water. We rinse our beans using our water spray unit holding it close to the beans and gently use a wooden spoon to turn the beans. The bean temperature change encourages the majority of the skins to loosen and fall off. Then we place the skins on a sheet pan, spread them out, pick out the loose skins and dispose of them, and continue with Step #4 to the end of the recipe.

I do not find it necessary to remove the skins. If you soak and cook your garbanzos properly (at least 12 hour soak and cook until falling apart), blend your hummus in the food processor for two or three minutes. Make sure you add liquid as you go. I make very creamy hummus and I do not remove the skins. I am pretty sure there is a vitamin or two in them.
