4. While the food processor is running, add 2 ice cubes, tahini, salt, and lemon juice. Blend for about 4 minutes or so. Check, and if the consistency is too thick still, run processor and slowly add a little hot water. Blend until you reach desired silky smooth consistency. At this point, you can cover and refrigerate the hummus for an hour or so before serving. u003cbr/u003eu003cimg alt=u0022hummus dip in the food processoru0022 src=u0022https://www.themediterraneandish.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/How-to-make-hummus-6.jpgu0022/u003e

4. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
