Perfect Hummous

Describe PerfectHummous here.

I think the Hummous project/discussion deserves it's own little page.

So folks, I'm curious to know, what would make my fairly decent/sort of exciting hummous into a true masterpiece. What do I need?

Right now I usually use:

• 2 cups Garbanzo Beans (chick peas), pressure cooked
• Tahini (I never know how much)
• Lemon Juice
• Garlic (oh yeeeah)
• A wee bit of olive oil (the tahini seemsto usually have a fair bit of oil in it already)
• Salt, Cumin, Cayenne, fresh Parsley

That's about it. What would make it better???

Adrain- OK i am like the Hummus master. I make it at least every other week. Here are some things that i have found make it better... Hummus is alot better when somewhat runny. I usually add about 1/4 cup water to the mix. Also- I put in 1/2 cup lemon juice- it makes the hummus very zesty... and i put in 1/4 cup tahini....but everyhing else sounds good....yum yum..and happy cooking!!! love ya Abbi ps. is it just me, or is hummus spelled hummus? I never spelled it with an o. (hummous..... Maybe its a canadian thing....

er, sad to say, I buy my hummous at Trader Joe's. Sorry.
