Ingredients

3 cans canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 handful blanched almonds

1½ cloves garlic cloves

60 grams gochujang (Korean red chili paste)

1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

olive oil, plus more as needed

Directions

  1. Add the drained chickpeas, blanched almonds, and garlic cloves to a food processor.

  2. Add the gochujang and balsamic vinegar to the processor.

  3. Drizzle in a generous amount of olive oil—start with about 3 to 4 tablespoons and adjust as needed.

  4. Process until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary. If the mixture is too thick, add more olive oil one tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

  5. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more gochujang if you prefer more heat or depth.

  6. Transfer to a serving dish and drizzle with a little extra olive oil if desired. Serve with fresh vegetables, crackers, or bread.
