  3. Process until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if necessary, to reach your desired consistency.
  4. Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of high-quality olive oil and garnish with extra artichoke hearts or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes (optional).
