I've finally found a hummus recipe I LOVE. I only used 3 tbsp of lemon juice, half the salt, 5 tbsp of the chickpea liquid, and I also added 1/2 tsp dill (because I love dilly hummus). I blended the oil right into the hummus, and left it in the fridge a few days to blend the flavours. Delicious!

This is the most authentic hummus recipe I've found. There's no need for heavy spices- just simple flavors.

This is a great basic hummus recipe. I added more garlic (about 2.5 tbs) because I like a real garlicky hummus. Also, I noticed that the longer it sits in my fridge, the better it gets. :)

This hummus was wonderful. I didn't change anything. My husband and I enjoyed it as a dip for veggies and pita chips.

Just like the hummus my Israeli-Canadian friend's dad made for her brother's bar mitzvah! I really recommend making it the night before you want to use it to let the flavours blend better. I don't know if it was my blender or what, but I had a few bland spots until it sat for a few hours. I forgot to put in the pepper (oops) but otherwise did everything according to the recipe. I use this as a mayo substitute on sandwiches, as well as using it on wraps. Of course, it's also amazing with chips (pita, tortilla are best)

Very, very good. I added an extra clove of garlic and a little more lemon. Used water instead of liquid from beans. Cumin is a good option too but good with or without.

Perfect and extremely simple. I stuck a huge whisk in my jar of tahina to get it going, that was the most difficult. Threw everything in the processor, turned it on, salt and pepper to taste, super simple.

I really liked this recipe! I added cumin and roasted red peppers (per other reviews) and a little bit more tahini. I had been using a recipe that called for about 3 times more tahini, so this surprised me. I really liked it this way, though, and I'll probably keep making it this way!

This was a good starting point for hummus, but know that you'll always have to taste it and play with the ingredients to get the proportions that you like. Everyone's different. I never have tahini on hand, so I use toasted sesame seeds and they work just fine.

I did not care for this hummus, I am so disappointed! I spent half an hour just trying to get it to be smooth, what a nightmare! This is too lemony! I even roasted some of my garlic to make it taste better but no luck. I will NOT be making this again.

Really tasty! Followed the suggestion by the author to up the tahini...next time I am going to add it more slowly, 3Tbsp is a lot! Only added a dash of salt and left out the pepper entirely. This recipe seems like it would be a great base to build from, it could easily be adapted to whatever flavor you like!

So very yummy! I wanted to use this in wraps and sandwiches, so I wanted it pretty thick and ended up using less than 1/4 cup of the reserved liquid. Thanks to the updates of the author, I added 1 Tbsp more tahini (peanut butter is NOT an acceptable substitute) and used 1/2 tsp of salt. I put the beans, minced garlic (2 cloves), tahini, and lemon juice into my food processor and blended and then added everything else as it was mixing. I ended up using about 1/2 tsp cumin and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Lastly, I just blended in the olive oil since I am not using it as a dip. It's perfect and we LOVE it!

this is a fail-safe recipe for hummus. i have tried before mulitple times, but was using dry garbonzo beans instead.t even after soaking and boiling them, i just couldn't get the right consitancy of hummus. canned garbanzo beans are the answer....also...i would reccomend using a food proccessor instead of blender if you have one....it makes the job much easier

Definately a hit at my house! I added a pinch of cumin and added the olive oil while I was blending. I used 2 cloves of garlic and thought it was a little too much for my tastes but the kids gobbled it up! I thought the salt was a little too much too. Next time I'll use less sea salt and one clove of garlic but that's just altering it to my tastes. This is a fantastic recipe!

This was very good, I used 3 cloves of garlic because that's how my family eats. Next time I would not use so much of the bean liquid, it was a little runny for our taste. But very good, I'll definitely make in the future.
