Fabulous and easy to modify. I really recommend Kosher salt, with a larger grain and better taste than table salt. Didn't try the cumin, but I'm sure it would also be great with other variations as well.

I'm never buying store-bought hummus again. Followed the recipe as is and then just adjusted the ingredients to taste. I like a more lemony hummus, so ended up adding a bit more of that. I used 15-oz cans of garbanzo beans because that's all my store had, and it turned out great.

So flipping good. I used the revised version given by the author. I fresh squeezed half a lemon into the mix instead of measuring it out. Better than anything you can get in the store (and comparable to what I would find at my favorite Lebanese restaurant- just wish I had a recipe for the hot sauce they serve there with the hummus!).

This is a good foundation but it was way too salty for my taste. I would recommend blending all the ingredients first and then add salt to taste. I also cut back on the lemon and just used 2 tablespoons.

Just delicious! I used three garlic cloves instead of one (I really love garlic!) and incorporated the olive oil during blending. The results was a flavor better than any hummus I have ever purchased from the supermarket. Will definitely make again.

I never realised how easy it was to make hummus. When I tasted this directly after making I too thought it was a bit salty. But by the time I served it at my party the following day it had lost that salty taste. Many Thanks.

I wish I read the below review before making this! It was definitely too salty, and perhaps had a bit too much lemon in it. But it was really easy to make, and cheaper than buying it in the store, so I will attempt again.

Did not like this recipe. Very salty and tasted too much like the tahini paste. I will try again but next time I will not add salt until the end and will cut back on the tahini paste.

I don't like Garbanzo beans (and, so, then, neither does my family). But I DO like Hummus (restaurant style; not so much supermarket offerings). Anyway, I substituted Cannellini beans for the Garbanzos when preparing this (as written), served it to my family (beside lamb chops and broccoli) and it was a GREAT HIT! I made it for myself one afternoon, substituting Pink Pinto beans (what I had available) while indulging in Triscuits. What a JOY!) I'm giving this recipe 5 stars because, while I KNOW that Garbanzo beans are traditional when making Hummus, I refuse to fault either the recipe or the submitter of it simply because I, personally, felt it appropriate to substitute my preference for the recipe's main ingredient.

this is a great, easy, healthy snack! I don't even worry so much now about measuring exactly but just getting the proportions approximate, and it turns out yummy everytime. chick peas, garlic, lemon juice and tahini, what a great combination! and we eat them with salted tortilla chips since that's usually what we have on hand.

I have made this a few times and am always asked for the recipe. Personally I find it too garlicky sometimes but I definitely blame it on the garlic that I have on hand. Now I make it with one clove, taste and add more if needed. Thanks for such a great recipe

I made this last Sunday for the football game and had cut up veggies and whole wheat pita bread cut into triangles with it. It was awesome! At first bite the tahini made the Hummus taste almost peanutty, or nutty but after a little while the flavors blended more nicely and it was perfect. I think I will add more garlic and maybe a tad more lemon next time. Mine turned out a perfect consistency done as the recipe states. This beats any store bought variety by far!

An amazing garlic hummus! I used only 3 tbsp of lemon juice and didn't find a need for the olive oil or any salt or seasonings. Perfect with just one 16oz can garbanzo beans, some juice to make it creamy in the blender, 2 cloves garlic, 3 tbsp lemon juice, and 3 tbsp tahini. So yummy with warm whole wheat pita bread and took all of 5 minutes to make!

I was out of lemon juice so that's probably be why, but this hummus is kid of bland. I added more garlic and that helped a little. Very quick to make, except a bit difficult in the blender (mine is an older model). I used a potatoe masher in the end.
