We have a sesame allergy- have used peanut/alomond/cashew nut butter in the past but can you advise how much to use instead of tahina ?
@CeylonDiamonds
What are all the spices mentioned, I heard saffron, paprika, sea salt, ..am I hearing Zatar? What is that, am I missing something in the recipe? 😙
What's zatar😂? Pls. Explain. Thx😅
We love this oil. Where can we buy the oil?
Just subscribed from the Philippines 🇵🇭. Is "Zatar" easely available in groceries or supermarkets anywhere? I've been to Israel twice before, i love humus and falafel.
He doubled dip the spoon in the humus
I use the juice from the can instead of water and garlic with parsley sprinkled on top
Missing garlic
Oh 😱 No double dipping
Sounds so easy to prepare.
Thank You!!!!
I make this recipe almost every week and I just discovered that if you put the garbanzo beans as the last ingredient going into the blender, the humus comes out very creamy. Blending with ice cubes also makes it creamier.
Yum!!
It’s way too watery for a good Israeli hummus
"5 mins" ? Without the unnecessary chat maybe 5 mins. I found a recipe elsewhere that was 5 mins
I have a question. I don’t like tahini. Can hummus be made without it?
That's way more than a few Tbls of water!
Guys, add a sprinkle of cumin on top and 4 cloves of garlic when mixing.
Soooo good. Thank you! Although I do add garlic.
Israeli humus is the best
I like Israeli people ❤
