I also come from the middle east where we eat humus all the time. I found here, in chicago, a little restaurant that make the Humus almost like in Israel, absolutely delicious. But we always eat humus with pita and pita has gluten. So, what to do???

[...] Until recently, I regarded hummus as an unremarkable dip served at parties with dried out flat bread. It wasn’t until I had an opportunity to visit Tel Aviv a few years ago that I had really good hummus. Indulgently creamy and velvety smooth, with a deep nutty flavour and subtle lemony zing, this was not the bland beige paste that comes in plastic tubs … [read more] [...]

I wish we could get a whole foods on cape cod.

we always buy caramelised onions hummus from our local supermarket, never thought of making it myself. Sounds really easy! Lovely presentation.

Love the tip about adding back the cooking liquid to smoothen the hummus, good call.

@Matthew, I find that dried chickpeas are way better, and they cook quickly in a pressure cooker. I couldn’t live without mine.

I’ve been making hummus for awhile, but it wasn’t until this year that I discovered a secret ingredient to make the best hummus ever: preserved lemons. Seriously try it, it will knock your socks off. Here’s my recipe.

Just found your site via Slashfood. Wow. This hummus is too gorgeous for words. Love your no recipe approach – isn’t the best food always that which you instinctively put together?

Mmmmm, great post. I’ve been making hummus for years, but never with caramelized onions; will definitely be giving that a shot!

Does anybody have insight into whether it’s worth the extra time and hassle (expense issues aside) to go with dried chickpeas over canned? I’ve tried both, but not enough to draw any conclusions yet.

I’m all for budget meals. I’ve recently started tallying and recording all my food expenditure in order to try and save. It’s a good exercise. Love hummus but only the homemade kind. Yours looks gorgeous. Love the addition of caramelized onions.

ah marc, you’re an inspiration. i reckon i shd start pondering more on the things i put in my basket when i go out grocery shopping. being less indulgent during hard times will be good for the wallet.
this houmous looks lovely and very classy. always a key ingredient in my fridge, i love slapping it in sandwiches or wraps which are easy for quick-to-go lunches. xx

I had an old co-worker who was from Egypt, and she would make the most memorable and smooth and deeply flavorful hummus, which has yet to be matched to this day!! There is nothing like “real” hummus, I agree the stuff in the tub is just plain sub-par.

Great post on cost of food. It’s so important to keep these things in mind when we’re eating out or even just buying food at the grocery store. It’s totally worth it to do even the easiest things by hand…including making hummus. Always worth it!
