DESCRIPTION
Just like any hummus, this carrot all-vegetable-hummus is incredibly versatile. Pack it on a picnic, or serve it as an appetizer on a party platter.
DIRECTIONS
Steam the carrots:
Place a steamer basket in a saucepan filled with about 1 inch of water. Put the carrots in the steamer, bring the water to a boil, cover and steam for about 5-10 minutes, or until fork-tender. Let cool.
Add the steamed carrots, tahini, lemon juice, garlic and spices to a food processor.
Process for 1 full minute, or until mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape down bowl and pulse.
Season with salt and white pepper to taste. Pulse again.
Serve sprinkled with sumac.
