How to Make Muhammara Flavorful Roasted Pepper Dip
To make Muhammara, start with the best peppers. Choose two large red bell peppers. Roasting them brings out their sweet, smoky flavor. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place the peppers on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes. Turn them every so often. Look for blistered and charred skin.
Once they are roasted, let them cool. After cooling, peel off the skin and remove the seeds. Next, grab your food processor. In it, combine the roasted peppers with 1 cup of toasted walnuts. The nuts add a nice crunch and depth. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic for flavor.
Now, we need some tang. Add 3 tablespoons of pomegranate molasses. This ingredient gives Muhammara its unique taste. Next, include 2 tablespoons of tahini for creaminess. Add 1 teaspoon of ground cumin and ½ teaspoon of smoked paprika for warmth and depth. Finish this mix with ½ teaspoon of salt to enhance all the flavors.
Process the mixture until it is smooth. You can leave it a bit chunky if you prefer that texture. While blending, slowly drizzle in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. This will help make the dip creamy. If the dip feels too thick, add cold water one tablespoon at a time. Keep blending until you reach your desired consistency.
Taste your Muhammara and adjust the flavors if needed. You might want more salt or pomegranate molasses for a tangy kick.
To finish, transfer the Muhammara to a serving bowl. Cover it and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. This lets the flavors blend together perfectly.
When ready to serve, drizzle a bit of olive oil on top. Garnish with chopped walnuts and a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds. This adds color and extra flavor. Serve with warm pita bread or fresh veggie sticks. You now have a tasty appetizer that everyone will love!
