For an even smoother hummus, peel the skins off the chickpeas before blending. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. A little extra lemon juice or salt can brighten the flavors. Store leftover hummus in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Experiment with different toppings! Toasted pumpkin seeds, a sprinkle of paprika, or a drizzle of tahini can add extra flavor and texture.
