Chickpea paste

Description

To get a truly tender paste, be sure to peel the chickpeas. Yes, this process is tedious, but you'll definitely be happy with the result. In addition to the legumes, the recipe also uses sesame paste. You can buy tahini at the store or make it yourself. You won't get by without equipment this time—only with a blender can you achieve the perfect paste. Serve with herbs and sauce.
