I love hummus! Even the kids will eat it. We like to put red pepper in ours.

This recipe and the Moroccan chicken went over very well in our household. Hubby had tried to make hummus before, but for some reason thought all you had to do was soak the chickpeas; he didn’t realize they needed to be cooked too! Now he knows better… and this first batch of hummus is a keeper!!

Thanks Rob,
I liked your blog too, and I hope I could contribute to the coming posts themed-months nicer comments…
I’m much less opinionated when the subject isn’t hummus, though.

Shook, we actually use a few different versions of the hummus recipe varying them slightly each time. We enjoy different versions and have not yet settled on one but felt that Hummus was an important enough recipe to get up as soon as possible. January is Beans and Legumes recipes here on the blog so it fit. This was the one we happened to make and photograph.

Thanks

AND… after completely trashing these awful Miracle Muffins, I’m happy to COMPLETELY and FULLY endorse your website.

Yes, Hummus is a nutritional powerhouse.

We’ll be looking around your blog a bunch more

Shooky – thanks for your comment, in the recipe instructions I offered the tip to “Add more water if you want it a bit thinner to use as a dip.”? We like ours thicker, you can adjust to taste – that’s the whole point of making your own.

The recipe looks OK but there seems to be something wrong with the final texture of the hummus. It seems like Darlene didn't add any water to it. You can check my blog for some photos in which you can see how REAL hummus should look like. For instance, the famous Abu Shukri hummus in old Jerusalem. Or my very own hummus including the recipe.
