Holy cow! That's good hummus! I added an extra clove of garlic and some chopped fresh cilantro just 'cause I have this compulsion to be different, and it was hands-down the best hummus I have ever had. Not to mention the simplest recipe I've ever seen, too!

    Throw away all of your other hummus recipes, and stop buying the over-processed and over-priced supermarket brands: this is all you need! As a hummus fanatic, the pure and subtle flavor of this dip is divine. I always add more garlic than any recipe says, so definetly play with the taste if you like. Regardless, I can't wait to try this with our falafel and coucous salad meal tonight. Thanks for sharing!

    a simple, straightforward recipe for yummy hummus! when i served it, i sprinkled paprika and toasted pine nuts on top. you can also drizzle a good extra-virgin olive oil over it. UPDATE: this recipe is so yummy — and super easy. i've always added oil or water to thin out the hummus, never the chick pea water ("reserve water" & this is by all means my now preferred method. thanks!

    I like hummus so was pleased to find this recipe. If anything it is much nicer than the commercially made hummus. I found it very easy to make. I didn't put it in the processor, just mashed it up and added the other ingredients. It made a coarser texture but I wasn't using it as a spread or dip, I used it with salad as a main dish.
