This is a delicious hummus cocktail made with oregano and three types of olives. Quick, easy and cost effective :) The step of whipping the tahini with the lemon juice helps to make the hummus smooth and light.

It is so easy to make hummus right at home, in about 5 minutes. This dip makes the perfect snack with some pita chips, veggies or pretzels. You could also make hummus toast or use it as a yummy sandwich/wrap spread or even thin it out with more water and use it as a salad dressing or toss it over pasta. Recipe source : gimmesomeoven.com

This turned out rather creamy, even more so than the canned chickpeas.

I love hummus! I used a lot of different recipes, but this one has been the most consistent and with plenty of flavor! This is a a basic recipe to which you can add different ingredients for different flavors, like roasted red pepper.

This is my take on hummus. I use the base of Alton Browns recipe and add a bunch of ingredients to it. I add different things and amounts for every batch.

This recipe was modified from a restaurant trick to get ultra smooth hummus by processing the tahini first with sodium citrate and ice water. The sodium citrate helps retain the emulsion between the tahini oil and lemon juice. Instead of using soaked and cooked chickpeas, ive modified the recipe to use 1 large can of precooked chickpeas for convenience, but they require further cooking to soften. I add a healthy dose of lemon because i like the tartness and I think rosemary really compliments the earthy flavors of the chickpeas, but this could be left out or substituted for other herbs and flavors.

This is a modification of J. Kenji Lopez-Alt's Serious Eats recipe for hummus for our taste. It requires the use of a powerful blender to achieve the creamy texture of beans.The main modification is with the tahini recipe. We wanted more garlic and acidity in less tahini paste, and want a slightly larger kick of cumin.

I made homemade hummus from my own tahini paste since a couldn't find tahini in the super market. Simple and easy way yet you'll enjoy the natural healthy middle eastern taste.
