We have used this recipe three times now, and with a few minor modifications it is the best! We use our own home-canned chickpeas and use only 1/4 cup of tahini as any more is overwhelming for us. Extra lemon juice to our taste is the only other thing we do differently. Thanks for sharing....this is one of the best hummus recipes we have found to date!
