My DH, the self proclaimed hummus experty, gave this 5 stars...and I liked it too. I made only a couple of adjustments for our taste. I used a can and a half of the chickpeas, a couple of tablespoons more oil and 3 large chipotle peppers in adobo, omitting the coriander and cayenne. This is now be my default hummus recipe from this day forward, and I know I will be able to work out many different variations from this "mother" recipe.

This was excellent hummus. LOVED this. It has all the necessary ingredients for a great basic hummus. I ended up having to put the mixture into my blender. I just couldn't get it smooth enough with the processor. Only change I'll make next time is to add the soy sauce first and taste before adding the salt. Thanks, rainna, this was great.
