Cumol

I don't know if you ever got around to making this or not. Made it again yesterday, used a new brand of chickpeas which had way too much salt added and totally ruined the hummus. So that's like the tiniest reason go actually do the dried a soak method -- controlling salt content. I can't switch to the old brand, I just gotta keep playing. Leave out salt. Find a better brand. There are options. Just please learn from my mistakes. I want you to have the best hummus possible.

I have to admit that I didnt try your recipe, I only did one batch of hummus recently and it was using that standard method I use.

I tend to get the fancy chick-peas from alnatura in Germany. They are not salted or rather I never noticed them being salted...

I also never noticed my old chickpeas being salted. This batch hurt my soul. That hummus recipe above is a lot of work so no worries about not trying it. There's a reason I only do it once every few months.
