Prep time: 2 days (including soaking beans), 20 minutes (after beans have been boiled)
Servings: many
Rating: 3 (out of 5, my own fault, not Hummusious's)
To celebrate completing the first year of graduate school, and to honor my classmates who put up with my incessant kvetching about American food, I decided to host an end-of-the-year potluck picnic. I decided to make homemade hummus, according to a recipe I finagled from Hummousious (aka Ron) last year. This recipe includes his secret tips on how to pamper the beans (soak in tchina) and stir (one direction), but I can't give it away in its entirety....
Soaking the beans with baking soda softens them more quickly, and reduces cooking time.
The pectin-rich cooking water will serve you well.... Save it!
Fresh lemon, garlic and hot peppers create the subtle, yet awesome, tang. Don't forget the parsley! (I did)
Yum. Top with some sauce and za'atar, and enjoy!!
