I, too, am a fan of the same brand of Spicy Three Pepper Hummus, so it was great to find this recipe. A couple of observations: (i) in order to achieve a smooth consistency, considerably more olive oil was needed; and (ii) to achieve a closer taste to the name brand, add some finely diced red pepper and 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, which brightens the taste.

This recipe highlights the versatility of hummus. I followed the recipe as written, except I added one more slice of jalapeno and ground white and black pepper by 'guesstimate'. I also had to add about 2 tsp more oil as it came out a bit thick the next morning. Regardless, this recipe is excellent and worth a try.

This was my first attempt at making hummus. I really liked this recipe. I realized I was out of jalapenos after already committing to this, so I used the juice from a jar of pepperoncini's. It still had a nice bite to it. I didn't think the garlic was over-powering, but I think I will roast it next time. Thanks!

Very good, much better than the 3 spice from the grocery. Much spicier we a very smooth flavor.

This is the best hummus recipe I've tried yet! For me, the balance of flavors was spot on (I err on the side of spicy and garlicky). I found the texture to be just right, too--not overly creamy, not too dense. This recipe gets two thumbs up from this avid hummus fan.

This is terrific! I did cut back on the garlic. I was out of jarred jalapeno's so I used 2 fresh Jalapeno's. Didn't have juice from the jarred jalapeno's so I used the juice from a jar of pepperoncini's. Very spicy just the way I like it. This is a keeper!

I added 1/2 tsp of salt and I used a half of a jar of roasted peppers instead. Only bc I didn't want it to be super hot. Delicious!!

Love this recipe! It is so easy to make and I always get such great compliments. Everyone is so impressed that a.) I made hummus from scratch and b.) that hummus could taste so great! Always gone before any other appetizer and definitely gone by dinner.
