I made two hummus recipes and served both at a dinner party, and everyone that attended liked this recipe much better, including one person that said she rarely likes hummus. Personally, I found it to have too much tahini & lemon juice for me, but everyone else thought it was wonderfully creamy and smooth. I did use 15 oz canned chickpeas (instead of 10 oz) with 1/2 cup of the liquid, 3 medium garlic cloves rather than 2 large, and 10 tbsp of tahini. I also freshly squeezed 9 of the tbsp of lemon juice, and then topped it off with one tablespoon of store bought 'fresh squeezed lemon juice'.

Delicious and easy. I've made this 3 times so far and love that I can just throw it all in the blender and have it come out perfectly. My only recommendations are to scale back a bit on the lemon juice — maybe 7 tbsp instead of 10 — and to increase the garlic from 2 cloves to 3-4 cloves if you're planning on eating it right after making it rather than letting it sit in the fridge to let the flavor permeate the mix for the next day.

This is soooo very good!! It must be one of those addictive foods that you mentioned in your "about me" section. I made this for DH and his family and they just loved it. They declared that it is the best Hummus they've ever eaten (and I agree)! It was wonderful served with pita, grilled leg of lamb, and Chopped Mediterranean Salad (#102299). Thank you for sharing your family recipe with my family! Hope you don't mind if we make it again and again acerast

Delicious!!! I prepared it for 4 servings and did almost exactly what the recipe said (well, added more lemon, salt and olive oil), but I also added 1 tablespoon of water to make it easier to mix... I really loved it!!! Thanks a lot :D

Really good and easy to make. When I made this today I cut back on the tahini and added a bit of cumin based on other reviews. In addition to serving with bread, it's a great alternative to cream based dips and goes well with corn chips (lime flavored are my favorites with this).

I just got done making this and yum yum. I only had about 6 tbsp of the sesame seeds to puree and used a little more than half a can of chickpeas. I also added red pepper. So good. I don't think I'm going to tell my husband I made some and keep it all for myself!!!!!
