Instructions:

1. Put the chickpeas in warm carbonated and salted water the night before.
   
2. Boil the washed chickpeas with hot water that covers them by 3-4 fingers for about 1/2 hour until they become soft and let them cool. Crush the shells of the cooled chickpeas with your finger and remove them one by one.
   
3. Crush the garlic thoroughly in a large mortar.
   
4. Take the sorted chickpeas in a pestle and crush them thoroughly. (You can pass all the ingredients through the blender)
   
5. Take the chickpea paste in a saucepan. Add half of the tahini and olive oil, cumin, lemon juice and black pepper, set it on fire and continue cooking by beating it with a wooden spoon over low heat.
6. When all the ingredients are well combined, take it off the fire and let it cool.
7. Take the cooled hummus in a wide serving bowl, smooth it with the back of the spoon and make grooves.
   
8. Finely chopped parsley. Add ground red pepper, remaining tahini, boiled chickpeas and lemon juice at the serving stage, garnish and serve cold. Pickled hot peppers go well with it. Enjoy your meal!
