Steps
Place the garlic, beans, tahini, and olive oil in a food processor. Blend and processor for 20 seconds, stop to scrape sides, then blend for 20 more seconds.
Add water, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Puree for two minutes, just keep it buzzing, to create the really really smooth texture.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably an hour, to thicken. Spoon into bowl and top with parsley, pine nuts, za'atar, and artichokes. Serve.

Evelyn on 2022-04-02 (5 stars): This is my go-to recipe for hummus, so delicious. I have stopped buying store bought hummus thanks to this very easy recipe. Although I love garbanzo beans, the smoothness of white beans makes this so good. I microwave my garlic clove for 6-8 seconds, this removes the sharp raw garlic taste that can linger in your mouth for hours :)
Jeff Winett on 2021-09-11 (5 stars): Late in the day yesterday I saw this recipe. I had all ingredients at hand, other than the toppings, although I did have pine nuts. This was absolutely sensational. Hubs and I ate judiciously, as I wanted to bring enough for a small gathering with friends tonight. This time, all of the toppings will be strewn on top before serving. They will flip as we did. This will be made often, and big Sherman Oaks thanks for your sharing.
