Garlic Salt to taste (or add 1 or 2 cloves and put regular salt)
Fresh black pepper
3 tablespoons Gherkins juice
1 to 2 tablespoon(s) Olive oil
Preparation
Cut the bagels in thin slices. Brush with olive oil. Add a dash of salt and pepper and bake at 350® for 20 minutes or until grilled.
In a food processor, add the chick peas, gherkins, basil, garlic salt and the pepper as well as the gherkins juice. Blend the mixture. Check the consistency of the hummus and add 1 or 2 tablespoon(s) of olive oil. If the mixture needs more liquid, add more gherkins juice.
Serve with some chopped basil over top, the bagel crostinis and extra gherkins for topping.
