Instructions

Simmer chickpeas in a small saucepan until tender, approximately 10 minutes, or until easily crushed with a spoon. Transfer the cooked chickpeas to a blender.
In the blender, combine tahini, olive oil, garlic salt, onion powder, turmeric, allspice, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and pepper. Secure the lid tightly and blend on high speed until the mixture reaches a mostly smooth, yet still thick consistency, about 1 to 2 minutes.
