How is it that my review is not showing? I copied this recipe into my keeper file long ago and make it all of the time for parties. It is a quick and easy appetizer, everyone loves it, and it is really delicious. It goes great with tortilla chips. I never change a thing, I make as written. Thanks!

I make hummus all the time. Using black beans is a great idea. Why didn't I think of it. Great recipe. I added some cilantro and sourcream and chili powder and cayenne pepper and also garnished it with those. Made for zwt5.

Great recipe!!! I prepared the hummus for my New Year's Eve dinner party. The theme was Latino inspired, so of course, I needed a black bean recipe :) I used GOYA canned black beans, drained and rinsed in cold water. To ensure the creamy texture, I used my food processor. I don't suggest omitting the cumin, it adds a nice Latino flavor.
