hummus

I was craving hummus during my macro economics lecture on Monday. I went home and found Rose Reisman's Hummus recipe. On Tuesday I went to look for Tahini, but no luck. I decided to go to a Japanese grocery store today and I found packaged sesame and tahini for 20 dollars. I decided to try to make my own tahini.. but i wasn't too successful.
**recipe take fromRose Reisman
ingredients:
1 cup drained and rinsed canned chickpeas
1/4 water
1/4 tahini
2 tbsp lemon juice
5 tsp olive oil
1 tsp minced garlic
directions:
1. In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, water, tahini, lemon juice, oil and garlic. Purée. Keep refrigerated for up to 4 days.
