• Drain the chickpeas over a bowl to collect the liquid (aquafaba), then add the chickpeas to a blender or food processor.
• Run the frozen peas under hot water to thaw, then also add them to the blender, along with the tahini, lemon juice, garlic salt and pepper as well as 4 tbsp of the aquafaba.

ENGLISH PEA HUMMUS

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over high heat, bring 3 quarts water and 1/2 cup kosher salt to a boil. Prepare an ice bath of 3 quarts water and ice with 1/2 cup kosher salt stirred in until dissolved. Add the shelled English peas to the boiling water and cook until tender, 2 to 4 minutes. When sweet and tender, immediately remove the peas from the boiling water with a slotted spoon and transfer to the ice bath to stop the cooking. Let sit until the peas are fully cooled, 1 to 2 minutes, then drain.
• Combine blanched peas, green garlic, mint, chervil, lemon, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the pepper in a food processor and puree until smooth. Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed. Serve with crudités or Crackers.

HUMMUS

Steps:

• Thoroughly rinse the chickpeas in a colander under cold running water. Tip into the large bowl of a food processor along with 60ml of the oil and blitz until almost smooth. Add the garlic, lemon and tahini along with 30ml water. Blitz again for about 5 mins, or until the hummus is smooth and silky.
• Add 20ml more water, a little at a time, if it looks too thick. Season and transfer to a bowl. Swirl the top of the hummus with the back of a dessert spoon and drizzle over the remaining oil. Serve with crunchy crudités and toasted pitta bread, if you like.

BLACK-EYED PEA HUMMUS

Steps:

• Set aside some black-eyed peas for garnish.
• With the motor of a food processor running, drop the garlic through the food chute until minced. Add the remaining black-eyed peas and olive oil and puree until a smooth, powder-like mixture forms.
• While the processor is running, add the ice cubes (this helps prevent it from becoming too thick), tahini, House Seasoning and lemon juice. Blend for about 4 minutes. Check, and if the consistency is too thick, add a little hot water. Blend until extra-smooth.
• Spoon the hummus into a bowl and make an indention in the top. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with the reserved black-eyed peas and a little House Seasoning. Serve with the warmed pita wedges and veggies.
• Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.
