This was all right, but it needed more dill to give it a dill flavor, and water to help process it smoothly (it was VERY thick). Also 1/4 of tahini is too much, it overpowered this hummus. I think this is a good recipe, but needs some adjustments to give it a better rating. -
Quite a good, fast, easy, flavorful hummus, though I prefer the texture I get by cooking dried chickpeas myself. Like other reviewers, I needed more dried dill to get a good, dilly flavor. Additionally, I had to add an extra tbs lemon juice and 1/4 cup of water to get my blender (a Kitchen Aid), to process it smoothly. -
I love hummus and this one was no exception. I used dried dill, and found that it really didn't taste much different at all from regular hummus. I ended up increasing the dried dill to 1 tsp to get a nice dilly taste. Thanks for the recipe, it's another neat twist on hummus i'll be making again!

I love humus and dill so I thought I had better try this recipe. I thought it was very good; however, I thought it needed a little extra garlic because I love garlic in humus. Overall definitely a keeper, and I will be making again soon! -
Yummy! I love hummus so much I eat it by itself;) This was no exception! I might decrease the lemon juice a TAD next time but the inclusion of dill just set it off! Thanks for a new hummus recipe to add to my collection:)
