To make the Parsley Hummus, you will need the following ingredients:
In a food processor, combine 3 cups chickpeas, 5 tablespoons water (or chickpea water), ¼ cup fresh lemon juice, ¼ cup tahini paste, 1 clove garlic, and ½ teaspoon fine sea salt.
Blend on medium speed until the ingredients are combined, but still look grainy. Scrape down the sides, then keep blending until the mixture is completely smooth. Taste and add more water, if needed, 1 tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition, until you get the desired consistency and the hummus is smooth.
Add the parsley leaves, leaving a few tablespoons for serving, and blend on medium-high speed for about 5 minutes or until the parsley is completely incorporated.
Taste and add more water, lemon juice, or seasonings if needed. With the food processor set on the lowest speed, pour in 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a slow, thin stream through the top opening.
To serve, spread the hummus onto a platter, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve with crackers and fresh-cut vegetables on the side.
