This Hummus was absolutely delicious! I'm never going to buy any from the store again.It was the perfect taste and texture. I followed BritHans' suggestion of adding a whole head of evoo roasted garlic (I added all its juices from cooking as well.) I also. I didn't measure the garbanzo liquid, I just drained the liquid from one can and used the whole can with liquid for the second can. I also used the juice of three small fresh lemons (Not sure of the measurement.)

    I changed one thing. I'm a sucker for garlic, so I put in a whole head, but I roasted it first. I sliced the garlic head in half, pour evoo into it, fit the top back onto the bottom, and the wrapped it in foil and put it in a 400 degree oven for an hour. It really enhances the flavour. The garlic comes out sweet and soft.

    This is so good! I halved the recipe with no problems, but left the amount of garlic the same (personal preference). I also added extra lemon juice and garbanzo liquid to make it extra smooth. I had this with pita bread and tomatoes for a tasty lunch. And there is tons left over! Thanks Charishma! This is my recipe from now on!
