Notes
If using fresh jalapenos, you will want to use 1-2 jalapenos, depending on the level of heat you prefer. Remember the seeds and white membrane are where a lot of the heat is in jalapenos so omit the seeds and membrane for a more mild hummus. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
