    Miraklegirl's Note:

    Pronounced Choo-moose, and not hum-miss! This is the easiest, yummiest hummous you will try outside the Middle East.

      I make "choo-moose" all the time, but have been pronouncing it all wrong!! Never again. Your recipe, Miraklegirl tastes more authentic than the version I have been serving. I love the consistency of yours, smooth and creamy. I did add several pinches of cayenne because my DH loves it hot, but he did comment on how much better he liked your recipe than the one I've been making. Thanks for upgrading one of our favorites.

      Absolutely wonderful! Since we like our hummus with some heat, I did subsitute the garlic for a tablespoon of garlic/chili paste that I had on hand. It was just enough heat for us. Thank you, Miraklegirl!

      Great, hummous!!! I subbed fresh lime juice for lemon as that is what I had on hand and added a couple T. of plain yoghurt and it turned out creamy and delicious. Oh, and I also used peanut butter instead of tahini (an Alton Brown tip) because tahini is so expensive and I only use it to make hummous. Thanks for the simple and great recipe for a tasty and healty dip.
