The Best Hummus Recipe in Just 5 Minutes | Smooth Texture | Easier Than You Think!

[@SB0369]

I will watch anything you post; but my favourite ones are where you talk to us, sharing your stories about a recipe and interacting with your awesome crew. I don't think many of us who love to cook are looking forward for recipes where we will be running against time.

[@brightantwerp]

Great recipe, thank you! I don't mind if you take 10 minutes to make it in a relaxed way.

[@shakeycrackers]

anothe five minutes would have seen you turning a half dozen of the store bought flatbread in a skillet with a little spray of olive oil...you cook like someone who actually feeds people with love...Teşekkür ederim !

[@anthonykwietniewski5043]

I prefer taking your time and doing it at a relaxed pace. It makes for a more enjoyable episode.

[@54Mello]

🤣🤣🤣🤣. Rafika a 7 minute hummus would be ok too…and less stressful for you! 🌹

[@trishhibberd22]

She does have a longer version of this in her archives…and it still is the best homemade traditional hummus I’ve ever tried! 😊

[@Blue.1887]

I very appreciate your channel and your philosophy and passion for food. But I do prefer your slow cooking format instead of that rush.

[@danadomino]

Your hummus recipe from 3 years ago is ALWAYS my go to when I make hummus in the house, which is about once a month. Been making it since that video first came out! ❤

[@kellietrudel8222]

Agree! It’s the recipe I use too!

[@danadomino]

@@kellietrudel8222 Its so delicious and I like the whipped texture I get from the recipe. Not too heavy!

[@crannitigs5595]

Rafika. Plz continue with your previous format of taping. Rushing to do recipes in few minutes spins you out of control. Its stressful to watch you struggle. No need for extra stress in these times. If you enjoy we will also enjoy watching you. Take your time, PLEASE!!

[@leecrespi5162]

We make this a lot at my house and my son loves to add smoked paprika. It gives it a very different and delicious flavor as well. I personally adore sumac!

[@amna6024]

you can never have too much garlic 🥰

[@venicawood3894]

I didn't breathe at all throughout that process! Surprised I'm still alive.

[@juliehillebrand8923]

Lots of love to you and your team, Refika! I've been making hummus for years, when I started removing the skins from the chickpeas and dropping one or two pieces of ice in as it blended absolutely changed my life.

[@icookconnect]

We love the natural, frantic energy of your video! A lot of people are intimidated to make hummus at home, but your video does such a great job of making it easy, accessible and relatable. Thank you!

[@rochelles.8387]

I didn't realize how much I miss hummus until I watched this video! I'll be making some today. Thanks Refika and team for another wonderful video. Fast or slow paced, all your videos are great. I've told so many people about your channel!

[@andersonomo597]

I'd rather see you do quick recipes at a normal pace and then stop the clock to get an actual, real life time. Watching you stressed out against the clock stresses me too. Love your work - you and your team are such a great credit to Turkey!! Hugs from Oz!!

[@monermccarthy7198]

Your comment is so true, I'm stressed for her just watching this. This hummus does look delicious.

[@BarbaraElcox]

I agree, please slow down. You have wonderful recipes.

[@MissBabalu102]

I like it speedy, now and then. At least we see it's possible if we hop a bit.

[@adityabelapurkar8386]

Always love to watch you explain things and showcase great recipes. One of the good things about your videos is peacefulness and enjoyment in cooking. This new fast format takes that away.

[@evechime]

I love this.....simple and easy to prepare.

[@tisalucchesi9910]

Thank you for your amazing videos! I am Italian American and for me, the best moments are those when we can enjoy the love around us and slow down enough to feel gratitude. This fast video may be very inspiring to some, but I would love to see a video where you and 1-2 others in your crew work together in the kitchen to set up a meal together without rushing.

[@shannonessig5959]

Ay, Refika! Give yourself 6 minutes. It's still a very impressive time. 😊 Thank you and your team for another delicious dish.

[@Jessejrt1]

Love the ice cube trick, have been using that since your hummus vid from years ago! Cant beat homemade hummus, so much better than the stuff they sell in stores, so much more flavor! Thank you.

[@katarinamills8530]

❤I make hummus very often but did not know the Trick with the ICE cubes. What is actually rhe point?Thank you🎉

[@MartinAhlman]

Swedish as hell, but I love hummus! Goes so well with a cup of tea and some bread. It's a staple food in our house! So tasty, and good for you as well.

[@Jane-hp1qz]

It is a staple in my house. Your recipe is just what I like. Fast!

[@makmobius6464]

I know there's a trend to do these kinds of time-crunching meals. Although I will watch anything you post, this format isn't my favourite. I love the way you reach out to us as if we are right there in the kitchen ... or wherever you are recording ... with you. I love how you interact with your team. I am inspired by your joy, your social justice activism, your caring, and your passion for everything. In videos where someone is competing with time, I feel tense and worried. There's enough stress in life. Is the goal is to show how easy it can be to eat good and flavourful food? I think that can be accomplished with the way you have fun with cooking. When you have fun cooking, I imagine myself having fun cooking. When I see you stressed out because of time, I imagine being stressed out because of time. I LOVE cooking. It is my hobby and passion. It is how I de-stress from the day. I think that's why I was so drawn to you and your team. I feel a kindredness and it makes my heart happy. I love watching your joy.

[@sharronhorsey6168]

I am British and my husband is Turkish; I always make your recipes and we love them. 🫒🍄🥦🧄🫑🌶

[@johnmoody2365]

Nice!!... and Hooray for Refika!!!! She used a proper juicer!!!

[@Metabookseller]

I love your cooking but I don't like this format. The rush rush rush adds a stressful feeling and life is already stressful enough. But I do appreciate very much your cooking instructions and dishes.

[@gokhanimer1841]

But I think that the main purpose here is to show how easy it is rather than how time efficient it is to do this

[@cinders302]

I agree, but here's a scenario: someone was to be at a potluck gathering and was running late. This would show the timeline capability if required Or...use it as part of a cardio workout 😄

[@sandyrice3559]

I agree with you on the rushed format. But in Refika's defense, the title of the video is "Hummus in 5 minutes", so, in all actuality, she was in a race against the clock to show that it could be done in 5 minutes. If I were to follow along with her making this, I would definitely slow down the playback speed.

[@Pinacoladamiaa]

Totally agree! Make it in 10 minutes instead of 5. Would be more pleasant to watch.

[@swingbelly]

I agree. Not a "smooth" presentation. But, still love her cooking.

[@tevaz5001]

I loved every split second of this video. Sometimes we have to hurry and knowing it can be done is very useful. I also enjoyed your previous recipe of hummus! It’s my go-to!

[@paulacharman]

I understood the concept of this fast-paced video (showing us a recipe in real time), so I loved it. I am definitely making this tonight!

[@2w2dddd]

Great job as always chief. I freeze the water from chickpeas and use it through the blending process. 👍👏👏👏

[@ciaohoney54]

BEST HUMMUS I HAVE EVER MADE- BUT MORE THAN 5 MINUTES OF TIME- WORTH IT AND ATE IT ALL YUMMY

[@carolmacdonnell7692]

I appreciate this 5 minute rush job - shows that it can be done! Thanks!

[@pianolakestudio76]

Thank you for all your lovely videos. Some of us still remember our grandmothers who immigrated here (Ellis Island) to the US and their European cost saving cooking methods. You take me back to remember her delicious meals and methods. I especially appreciate your thrift to demonstrate how we can all eat well even in spare times. Blessings!

[@ChristiaanDwiid]

This is such a beautiful thing that I love. Awesome hummas and some lovely people to share with

[@ramonajordan3875]

This was the first recipe I made after I began watching your channel. It's delicious!

[@dkorsey]

Love, love, love hummus!! I am so excited we will visit Istanbul in October and can’t wait to eat some of the fabulous local food!

[@monermccarthy7198]

I love the ice cube technique. That hummus looks devine

[@kattytj1]

I love everything you prepare. Thank you very much for your hard work and for helping me to make delicious meals. Greetings from Morelia, Michoacán México

[@VSchwarcz]

I love it 😂😂😂😂 very entertaining. I like the format for quick stuff.

[@thesinstreamstreams9465]

YOU READ MY MIND!!! I was looking up your hummus recipe because I'm serving it at my sons 33rd bday party!!! You're like a little angel that always knows what we need and when. Thank you Refika!!! XOXOXO

[@Refika]

Happy birthday 🎂🥰

[@PTAP330]

😀 This reminded me of the show chopped. I love hummus, thanks for the recipe.

[@hellegilbert3000]

Delicious. I will try your 5 minute recipe.

[@flemingdh]

What a great full-energy video to start my day! Thank you for all the information too!

[@rebeccabrandt2505]

Great video! I needed a reminder of how easy this is!

[@afshandaud2089]

Love the recipe and the energy too

[@lauraellen189]

I love all your composting tips and the lemon tip, great idea!! Greetings from Missouri, USA

[@nalabdf5942]

Excellent job!!

[@WendyWilliamsLiving]

Fun video, great recipe! 😃

[@gopalrao451]

This is why you are so wonderful - making great food with simplicity. Love you lots, Refika.

[@saimabashir6393]

Love the quick recipes...esp putting on timer

[@MalteseKat]

6:51 There was a time I couldn't find tahini. I used to throw in several tablespoons of sesame seeds. So that's when I needed a good processor, but I only had a blender. I never bought a food processor but I learned about the ice and that made my hummus restaurant quality. Thanks to you Refika!❤

[@cristibaluta]

What is the ice doing, how it will look without, isn't it just water?

[@teddycabana]

​Search it or just try the tip idk exactly why but she says it's better than water .. ​@@cristibaluta

[@teddycabana]

​@@cristibalutai asked my brother for u & he said to cool it down so u don't eat it warm & so the color doesn't get too yellow 🫡🤓😎😃

[@topraksemstezcan1938]

@@cristibaluta The rotation of the blades creates heat and spoils the taste of the hummus. Additionally, since the ice breaks into pieces and bounces off, it also ensures that the hummus is mixed homogeneously and of course dilutes it a little.

[@Natasha-oz6ik]

Love that you showed this was possible in 5 mins, will be doing this recipe today after work. I Love, love this video.

[@Kathy0702]

Thanks!

[@sixfigurebookkeeper7588]

I am grateful for this content. It takes my hubby an hour to make hummus so we never get to eat it 😮. I want more hummus in my life and you make this possible - thank you!

[@jeanflorence1811]

Thanx loved it❤

[@CarlaSims2830]

I love everything you post and especially this hummus recipe! Excellent!

[@breyonaparker]

Amazing job!

[@aishajawaid1643]

Just loved your 5 minute Hummus. Very inspiring. Will definitely try it out asap!!

[@aaronbux1]

I would have been ok with a 6 or 7 minute hummus haha. Hate to see people rush rush. Thanks. Refika and Co! Your recipes are always the best. :)

[@anjumazhar9616]

Loved it fast and fabulous

[@Metabookseller]

I already did the hummus recipe. Great results, tasty and very smooth. The ice helped a lot!

[@victoriaeldredge9450]

Will make this today , Thank you Refika ! Love love your recipes .❤

[@Refika]

🙏🏻

[@kaanbalci]

Refika, people use aquafaba instead of ice cubes and the taste doesn't dilute. I prefer starting the processor with the garlic first. So that they can be chopped beforehand. I love using canned/jarred chickpeas, too. This real-time video set up is purely perfect. I feel excited, anxious, stomachache in real time and all the mind slips, all the dilemmas you live instantenously - wouldn't change a bit. Thank you guys there for taking the cooking joy seriously and investing in it, working your backs off for it and always improving... I'm a big fan since day 1. [P.S. I'm heartbroken because Refikadan gave up investing in enamelware. They were your legacy.] ❤

[@Noushi227]

The way you cooked and explain everything I love it keep continues

[@ciaohoney54]

you remind me of julia child!! biggest compliment xox

This is how I make my hummus! Delicious 🤤

[@animaturas]

tried it! fantastic!!!! Thank you!

[@carlstevenson4232]

Linda here…excellent video, as always. I don’t have ice on our sailboat, plus I rinse/soak/rinse dried chickpeas to save the weight of pre-cooked beans and remove some starch. And I make tahini from scratch. Love your videos and was just thinking I need to make some hummus when I saw this video. As always, perfect timing. Thank you and your team for all your hard work, showing how easy cooking at home can be. 😘

[@buketkeen1275]

Delicious 😋

[@sunflowerbaby1853]

So happy to see someone else remove the chickpea skins. Though it takes me at least 5-10 minutes to do that step. I like to remove each and every skin. Personal preference. And just a comment…you don’t need to run and rush around. If I had to cook like that I would be stressed out and anxious. 😊

[@ElisandeWalters]

I adore how you clean up even under time pressure and the delightful hops behind the counter. this I shall try

[@ElisandeWalters]

(can't do it know because the organic olive oil the husband bought through no fault of his tastes bitter T_T )

[@ElisandeWalters]

and try I did. and it is delicious!

Ok, I think she got it already that you all prefer the old format. How many more times do you need to say it? Good job Refika! I love your recipes and I can’t wait to try to make this Hummus on my own. 🤗

[@CS-bn4un]

Just found your channel while researching Turkish foods...Kahvalti recipes and menus in particular...then I "chased the rabbit down the hole' to your other videos. Our family has enjoyed good hummus for decades after first having it at Lebanese owned restaurants in Africa many years ago. Grateful for more tips from this video to make a smoother hummus at home, but I think I need a new food processor!! Like others though, I was subconsciously a bit stressed watching this video...the SLOWER and natural formats are much more enjoyable and easy to follow for this slightly older woman!

[@JRR31984]

Heck yeah, SUBSCRIBED. GO LADY

[@fsawal7545]

Absolutely wonderful!!

[@grandulasperty1812]

This format is fun! I'll definitely try it 100% of the supermarket ready everything is a disaster, I have to make it all from scratch, but never tried hummus yet (I have to find a recipe for tahini) Thanks!

Please try and let me know how it turns out :) you can find homemade tahini recipe in the channel ✌️kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3XZpnV9nch8kJosi=HzFdTfdKuXlFwxEI
