Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Stir in the cumin, olive oil, salt, and parsley. Taste the hummus, and adjust the seasoning if necessary with additional salt and lemon juice. If the hummus seems too thick, stir in more canning liquid or water to loosen it slightly. Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
Hummus will keep, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for about 7 days.
