"EVERYONE should know how to make a great hummus! I usually make this with canned chickpeas but see notes for using dried (stove or pressure cooker). Quick to make, and completely incomparable to store bought. Don't skip the tahini - it's a must for hummus. And see notes for EXTRA SMOOTH hummus tips! Recipe VIDEO below...."
