Hummus Recipe

Recipes

Homemade hummus tastes great like none other and I love making it. However, in our tiny Italian village, it’s impossible find its core ingredient: tahini. However, a friend of mine found some in a little ethnic shop in downtown Rome and brought me a little jar. ((And I recently discovered that you can buy Tahini (US link) online.Of course we had to make some homemade hummus right away. Here is a delicious hummus recipe.
