Somehow in the course of finding the reference recipe there for hummus that I used in my experiment, I neglected to note that the source was in fact a blog; The Hummus Blog. It’s a cool source of info on hummus, chick peas, tahini and falafel. It’s also quite critical of American takes on hummus, and recipes that call for canned chick peas. That explains why that recipe actually called for dried ones, which were what I had.
