The white beans in this hummus recipe is creamier and lighter than the traditional hummus, and the Lemon fused oil gives it a subtle, lemony hit. The key is shelling the peas. It only takes a few minutes but is actually relaxing and worth the effort. Generally, chickpeas are drier than white beans so increase the water by adding 2 Tbsp of water. Makes 2 cups
