    Chef Jean-Pierre! I have now soaked my chick peas for 10 hours. I immediately went to buy a bag after your video. I had already planned on doing groceries that day, and wanted to buy pre-made hummus. I scratched that idea after seeing your video, and went out to make my own. Holy smokes, I’ll let you know how it turns out!

    It is so wonderful to read the different comments from people who grew up with hummus as a staple of their diets. I'm 66 and only discovered hummus 4 years ago. I feel cheated! LOL (not really). The comments are so supportive. Imagin a world where we used recipies instead of bombs to settle our differences. Wow.

    The canned chickpeas I buy still have the shells on them – I go to the bother of removing them but my wife thinks it’s a fool’s errand…..?
    Roasted garlic is yummy too – I save them in oil in the fridge – sorta makes your own garlic oil

    Just when I was thinking he did not put enough salt in it he turned around and said or I need to put more salt. I always end up adding salt after I add lemon juice. I use cheaper tahini that's more sesame oil than sesame paste so I don't use as much olive oil.

    Warning: This recipe, as written, makes one metric buttload of hummus. You'll get at least 5 cups out of it. That's a LOT of hummus, like, downtown Mediterranean restaurant lunch rush amounts of hummus. If you have a normal human-size food processor like I do (I have a 7-cup Cuisinart) you'll need to do it in batches.

    I make a batch of roasted garlic weekly…evoo and whole raw garlic cloves with sea salt a red pepper flakes sometimes other seasoning…I would add that (roasted garlic and the evoo) to make the hummus

    With energy costs today, cooking for 45 minutes means the cost is too high compared to canned, especially with gas stoves being banned at the federal level soon for new residential homes. Electric stoves are ruinously expensive to operate or control temperature for precise cooking, the age of the home cook recreating fine cuisine may soon be part of history, in the USA.

    I used to add all the ingredients at the same time, however I found that whipping the tahini for several minutes with the garlic, oil, lemon juice and a little of the chickpea water, before adding the chickpeas, salt, and cumin, yields a much smoother hummus. But I’m willing to try this recipe as it’s been years since I’ve done it the way Chef is doing it here.

    All about Chef's lemon olive oil… I used to buy regular olive oil every month, and now I use about 1/4 that amount because the infused olive oils have taken it's place. Thanks again, chef
