Store bought hummus has too much salt and often not 100% olive oil.
There are lots of recipes for hummus and even entire web sites dedicated to hummus.
This is how I make it.
1 pound dried Garbanzo beans
soak overnight
Rinse and drain
Cook for 90 minutes with 1 tsp. of baking soda in the water until well done.
Rinse and drain.
In a food processor:
Garbanzos
1/4 cup Tahini
1/2 cup olive oil
6 (or more) cloves garlic (pan roasted in olive oil is nice also)
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp tumeric
lemon juice (start with 1/4 cup and add more to achieve desired consistency) (fresh is best)
Blend until smooth... at least several minutes.
This makes about 5 cups hummus. I usually freeze half.
