- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon salt

Step 1
Begin by bringing a medium pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add the cauliflower florets and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the florets are tender.

In a food processor, combine the cooled cauliflower florets, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, and salt. Blend the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
Step 4
Gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve your desired hummus consistency. You may use more or less water depending on preference.
Step 5
Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice as you desire.
Step 6
Transfer the hummus into a serving bowl, and drizzle a bit of olive oil on top for added flavor.
Step 7
Garnish with paprika and fresh parsley before serving.
