I've been making hummus for years. If you cut a lot of the tahini (even all of it), you save a lot of calories w/out losing too much flavor. Also, if you have a lot of time, peeling the chickpeas creates a much smoother texture. Extra garlic and cayenne can boost flavor make up for missing tahini - 1/22/09

You make Hummus just like I was taught so, I know that this recipe is fabulous. I sometimes use Cayanne instead of the Cumin. Also, I like to take my diced garlic and put it in my mortor to make smoother! I know Tahini + cals and carbs but, I was taught... Hummus isn't Hummus w/out Tahini!!! - 5/22/09

I made this for the first time. I couldn't find tahini paste, but I DID find sesame seeds, so I made my own tahini. I used dry chickpeas, and cooked by the quick-cook method. My hummus was not totally smooth. I'm thinking maybe I should go the "long" route next time and soak the chickpeas overnight. - 4/6/08

I don't add water, lemon juice and tahini sauce is enough. Instead of salt and cumin, I use Adobo and Zumac. The secret to my humus is the olive oil, I use the imported kind. It's so thick when I pour it and it makes the humus taste so exotic. I tried the store bought kind but now I'll never go back - 1/27/08

Olive oil and Cayenne pepper is sprinkled on Hummus!
You start with the garlic and salt, add tahini sauce water and lemon juice and you have a Taratour sauce (it is used for baba ghanoug or meat Shawarma) then you add the hot chickpeas and some water from it, u can freeze remainder, enjoy! - 8/24/09
