    Thanks a lot for this recipe without oil or yogurt it stays fresher for
    longer! I followed the same as this, but tried it with light tahini, and
    preferred the lighter texture. I also used more of the chickpea juice to
    make it smoother. Then I added roasted red peppers (nice and quick from a
    jar), jalapenos, and some chilli sauce. Tastes great and will never go back
    to ready made! Since hummus is pretty much a staple food for me, I make it
    every week no fail 🙂

    Good tip on the pressed garlic, my mom made this and I bit into a huge
    gnarly chunk of it. YUCK!

    i dont use tahini.way too meny polyunsaturated fats.i use mct oil and i
    find that if i prepare it 24hrs ahead it does taste way better then if u
    eat it once u done it. im not vegan so i add low fat cream cheese that
    makes it extra creamy and higher in protein. if u r vegan u can add plain
    soya yogurt

  10. kuhntpunt

    YOU PRONOUNCED IT WRONG!!! IT’S CHOO MOOSE!!!

  11. Yoko Lee

    The best recipe thank you

  12. crystalhaiku

    @imraniqbal26 There’s already enough fat from the tahini.. adding extra
    virgin olive oil really isn’t necessary

  13. im iq

    hummus is not complete without extra virgin olive oil…

  14. mommaplath

    How do you store tahini and how long is the shelf life?

  15. Naturallyvegan011

    Ohh..Myyy..GOSH…Yummy………….. we made a video response to this
    video, hope you can check it out =) Take care

    How much of the peas, lemon, tahini, cumin, water and garlic do you use? I
    like your tip about the gas going into the water after cooking it but then
    you put the gassy water back in? How much is considered a serving? Can it
    be used for anything other than a dip? I saw some vids with humus as a
    dressing.. what do you think of wraps with whole grain wrap bread? thanks
    for all your hard work! I’m a meat eater overweight unhealthy person
    wanting to change my ways.. thanks for your help!

    This was a great recipe! I used about 1 1/2 Cups of dried chickpeas (which
    I cooked in the slow cooker for 1 1/2 hrs), added about 1 tsp of salt,
    squeezed 1/2 lemon (no zest), 1/2 tsp cumin, 2 tbls. minced garlic (from
    the jar, this is a lot so only add this much if you really like garlic). I
    had no tahini or sesame seeds so I used 1 1/2 tbls. sesamee oil. Blended it
    all in my Vitamix, adding water as needed (probably somewhere around 3/4
    cup, and it came out great. In the end, I also added 1/2 tsp. chicken
    bouillon and it tasted even better (obviously skip this one if you want it
    to be vegetarian or vegan). MUCH better than store bought!
