Raw Hummus Recipe (no zucchini!!!)

So here's the local favorite: Xam's raw hummus! It's all seed/nut based, check it out:

First you take 1 1/2C sunflower seeds and 1 1/2C cashews (1:1) and grind them up like so:















Then you throw them in the blender along with 2 Tbsp nama shoyu (or bragg's/tamari for the less expensive, non-raw version), 1 Tbsp Turmeric Root Powder, 1 tsp. Cayenne, 2 Tbsp. Nutritional Yeast (optional), 1 tsp. Terragon, 1 tsp cumin seeds, 1 clove garlic, 1 Tbsp. Cold-pressed Olive Oil, and about a cup and a half of water like so:















Add water until you achieve a smooth consistancy, be careful though - too much will make it more liquid than creamy. If you go overboard on the water, it's all right, it makes a fine salad dressing.

Your consistency should look like this when it's done:















And just to be cute and perfectionist like the Virgo Rising that I am, I put it in a little hummus container like this:















Enjoy with Carrots, Celery or on Kale wraps! Anything you can think of!



Much Loves everybody,
Xam Devesh

  1. This is one of my personal favorites. I was just checking to see how you do it again. I made a slight variation, and it's pretty good. I put a bit too much water, although I just added more nutritional yeast and now it's coming into a good consistency. Thanks for making this blog.
