Step 1 of 7:
Soak the chickpeas in water for 24 hours, then drain the water and rinse the chickpeas under cold running water.

Add the chickpeas, pumpkin pieces, baking soda, and 300 ml of water to the pressure cooker. Close the lid, set to cooking level 3, and heat the stove. Reduce the heat as soon as the yellow ring appears. The cooking time of 20 minutes begins now. Note that the temperature indicator must remain on the green ring. Reduce heat further if necessary.

After the cooking time, slowly release the pressure through the valve and open the lid.

Add garlic, tahini, lemon juice, and ice cubes to a blender and whip until fluffy for approx. 3-5 minutes.
Step 5 of 7:
Add the chickpea-pumpkin mixture and puree on high speed for another approx. 6-8 minutes. Season with cumin, salt, and pepper.
Step 6 of 7:
If the mixture is still too firm afterwards, add a little more ice-cold water.
Step 7 of 7:
Serve hummus with olive oil and toppings as desired.
