  Ice cubes instead of the ice water, and blend, blend, blend. Bless the strong arms of our ancestors who did not have the Ninja.

  Great video!  I hope you don’t mind my pointing out that tapas are literally the Spanish version of Arab mezze, a reminder of the wonderful cultural influences Arab culture brought to Spain over the centuries.❤

  Note that tahini has no oil added! &nbsp;It is simply ground sesame seeds - like what you get when you grind peanuts!

  Loved this. Little tip for peeling your chickpeas - do it after soaking but before boiling. Keep it in the soaking water, put your hand in and rub the peas gently between your fingers. The skins will slough off and float to the top. You can then just pour them out with the water.

  Thank you for focusing on the cold water. &nbsp;That really seems to be the trick to the creaminess.

  I’ve been making Lebanese-style hummous since 1981, when my boss taught me. My kids absolutely hated it until about 2010. Homemade is sooo much better than any store bought stuff.

  Shukran! ❤ I do the same recipe but I’m lazy a bit so I start with dry chickpeas into an instant pot for 30 mins drain rinse and boil again for 30 more mins. The skins literally float to the top and they are just like I spent all that extra time. I also add an ice cube or two instead of water. Super creamy and fluffy! No need to plan ahead the day before. ❤

  Great video as usuall. Alittle tip about squeezing lemons using the squeezer you use. If you put the lemon the other way round, with the inside facing down and the rind facing up, itll squeeze more efficiently.
