In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, and salt.
Process the ingredients until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
While the food processor is running, gradually add 2-3 tablespoons of water, until the hummus reaches the desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, and smooth the top with the back of a spoon.
(Optional) Drizzle with additional olive oil and sprinkle with paprika or parsley before serving.
Serve with vegetables, pita bread, crackers, or as a dip for your favourite foods.
