Extra Smooth Hummus

This is a recipe I stumbled upon after making my dessert, Peach and Coconut cream…

I had a half a packet of silken tofu left and was making my regular hummus for another recipe. Isn’t silken tofu meant to be good in dips? So in it went. This secret little ingredient turns a lovely hummus into a fabulous hummus by making it smoother and lighter.

All you need to do is add in all the ingredients below and blend until smooth in a processor or handheld blender. Now this is my new favourite hummus…
