i did not read the reviews before i made this, so it turned out REALLY salty. i added in more of the other ingredients to balance it out, and it was pretty good. also, there is a discrepancy between the ingredients and the directions. the ingredients include tahini, but the directions never say to add it. this could be where all the extra salt is comming from...

I liked this recipe - it was super easy and tastes great. I added a little cumin, sesame seeds, pepper, rosemary, olive oil and sesame oil(next time I'll just put in 1/8 tsp)right to the mixture. I also left out the garlic and the salt.

This recipe worked well but I completely left out the salt, I would taste it before I added any at all as the tahini is salty. I left out the rosemary but added in some chopped artichokes and black olives, a little seasoneed salt and olive oil over the top, add an olive in the middle and it looks (and tastes) like something you ordered in a restaurant. YUM!

If you like the taste of honey, this is for you, because that's all you'l taste. This sat on my appetizer table untouched after the first taste. I had one compliment, but I figured out she was just trying to be nice.

This was great hummus but I did have to add a lot more seasonings to make mine not so bland. Chili pepper works great in this recipe.

This is GREAT hummus! So very easy... took me less than 10 minutes to make. I added a little turmeric and cumin for more flavor. Will definitely make againa and again!

I must say that this is the best hummus recipe I have found. I like to use roasted garlic instead of regular garlic. This recipe also provides a great base for adding all sorts of different ingredients. I sometimes add roasted red peppers or whatever is fresh out of my garden.

I added more honey and no salt. I thought it would of been really good with only one clove of garlic. I love garlic but 3 cloves was to much.

I ended up mixing this up with another recipe! I did 1/3 Cup tahini and then added to taste as I went. Used 3 tsp low sodium soy sauce and only 1 gigantic clove of Elephant garlic, the juice of one lemon and added olive oil until I got the consistency I like. The honey was an excellent touch. I am going to use this as my 'base' as I begin to experiment with roasted peppers and ancho chilis.

This hummus is fabulous. I've been trying to find a perfect hummus recipe and the search is over. I drizzled 2 tbsp olive oil into the hummus while it was food processing to incorporate it. Next time I will use slightly less salt. LOVED IT!!

This was delicious. I brought it to a work potluck and everybody loved it. I couldn't find the Tahini in the store so that ingredient was missing. I'll put it in next time to know how it is :)

I used feedback from previous reviewer and skipped the tbsp of salt, turned out great. Just a hint of sweetness from the honey to counter the garlic - loved it. I shook some sea salt on the pita and a little on the hummous after it was in the serving dish. Used dried rosemary instead of fresh, and chickpeas instead of garbanzo. Also sprinkled pita and hummous with paprika for presentation. Excellent 5 minute appetizer. Will be making it again.

I was intrigued by the ingredients, but they did not go well together. Much too salty.
