Grind the almonds in a food processor for about 2–3 minutes, until into fine crumbs.
⚙ Grinding in a Food ProcessorFood processor
💡At first the nuts grind into crumbs and then into clumps: keep grinding, stopping now and then to scrape down the sides, until the oils are released and the mass turns into a paste.
💡In a food processor, grind in short pulses and check between pulses: it's easy to go from coarse to paste. (Sesame for tahini, on the other hand, is ground continuously.)
2
Add the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, salt and black pepper and process 2–3 more minutes, until the spread is even.
3
Add the water a tablespoon at a time, with the processor running, until it reaches a spreadable texture.
