I've been loving miso lately, and I had an interesting idea. An Asian inspired hummus using miso, lime, and ginger instead of tahini, lemon, and cumin. This twist on the classic hummus is the perfect dip for veggies, dressing to your salads, or even sauce for noodles, packing a umami punch!

- 15.5 oz can (254 g) Chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 4 tbsp (68 g) Miso
- 2 tbsp (30 g) Soy sauce, low sodium, gluten free
- 2 tbsp (30 g) Lime juice
- 1 tbsp (15 g) Minced garlic
- 1 tsp (2 g) Ginger, ground

1. Using a strainer, drain and rinse your can of chickpeas, reserving the aquafaba

2. Add all ingredients to a food processor, and blend until super smooth. Thin out with aquafaba if needed (1-2 tbsp, or 15-30 g)

3. Transfer to an airtight container, and garnish with sesame seeds or chopped scallions (most folks call them green onions). Store in the fridge for up to 1 week. Use as a dip, spread, or dressing
