Stu, I gotta give it to you this is goooood hummus! I've tried plenty of recipes, including just experimenting with the basic stuff and nothing has ever matched my favourite hummus from my health food store. I have to say this comes pretty close. You can taste all the seperate ingredients without any of them being overpowering. The other thing I really like about it is that there is no olive oil involved as in many other recipes. This definitely is a keeper. Wonderful, thank you!
