1 tsp sea salt
2-3 tbsp Gladstone Chipotle Hot Sauce (adjust to taste)
2-3 tbsp water (as needed for desired consistency)
Instructions:
Roast the Garlic*
Place 4 cloves of garlic in a small saucepan with enough oil to cover the cloves.

Add the garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and Gladstone Chipotle Hot Sauce to the food processor.
Blend again until fully incorporated and the hummus has a smooth texture.
Adjust Consistency:
Gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition until you reach your desired consistency.
Taste and Adjust:
Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning if needed. You can add more salt, lemon juice, or hot sauce to suit your taste.
To Serve:
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl. Drizzle with a splash of olive oil and some additional hot sauce, sprinkle with chopped fresh herbs or crispy chickpeas if desired.
Serve with pita bread, crackers, fresh vegetables, or as a spread for sandwiches and wraps.
