directions
In a large saucepan bring water to a boil and simmer lentils about 15 minutes, or until al dente.
In a colander drain lentils and rinse under cold water, draining well. Transfer lentils to a bowl and chill 20 minutes.
In a food processor puree lentils, tahini, garlic paste, lemon juice, and water until smooth. With motor running add oil in a stream, adding up to 1/4 cup more water if mixture is too thick. Season hummus with salt and pepper.
Hummus may be made one day ahead and chilled, its surface covered with plastic wrap. Bring hummus to room temperature before serving. Serve with pita or veggies.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
