    Might be a bit much lemon depending on your taste, i'd suggest starting with 1 lemon and going by taste from there. Other than that, its a great recipe.

    This is good, and if I were rating it as-is I guess it would get 3 stars. But, my adjustments made it 5 stars so 4 is the average...hope that's helpful at all.

    I found the overall texture too pasty and grainy no matter how long I processed it. I like it super smooth. It was also a bit too salty and the garlic was overpowering. So, I made the following changes:

    Reduced the salt to 1 tsp. (and I'm not overly salt conscious
    Reduce the garlic to 3 cloves (and I LOVE garlic!
    added 1/3 to 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil (guessing here!

    The result is devinely smooth and flavorful hummus!

    This was really good and I gave it four stars instead of five because I too had to make some adjustments. The garlic and lemons I used were really fresh so it ended up being overpowered with garlic and lemon juice. I had to make another batch minus the garlic and lemon and mixed it all together. It was perfect after I did that and from now on I will never buy the expensive hummus from the supermarket.

    I respect and trust Ina more than any other FN chefs, so decided to try her hummus recipe over the others on this site. It's absolutely delicious! Used 3 garlic cloves instead of 4, 1 lemon instead of two, and much more of the chickpea juice than the recipe called for, plus added all sorts of spicy stuff like chipotle and red pepper flakes. Sooo yummy! Better, cheaper, and more fun than store-bought hummus. I'm glad I tried this recipe-- definitely a keeper!

    I enjoyed this hummus. I didn't have tahini so I tried blending it without it and then added 2T of olive oil. I tasted it and added salt gradually. Very good. The raw garlic gives it a strong garlic flavor - but I like it.

    Wish I, too, had read reviews before making this. For my taste, I'll cut the salt in 1/2 next time. Really easy, tasty, blank slate. Made mine w/Navy beans 'cause I didn't have chick peas. Really tasty. Nope, never buy hummus again.

    I will never get store bought hummus again. This recipe is like a blank slate that you can personalize and make your own with whatever flavors you like. I add cilantro and jalapeno to mine or sometimes black olive tapenade. Thank you Ina for another wonderful recipe!!

    when i first made this it was way too salty, luckily i had some extra chickpeas on hand to kind of balance things out...
    other than the salt factor.. this is amazing!!!!

    This was so easy to make and tasted great, although I CUT THE GARLIC IN HALF (2 cloves instead of 4 after making it the first time. After that it was perfect for the quantity of beans. I don't think I'll be buying hummus from a store anymore!

    I did not know what to expect and this was delicious, after reading some of your comments I used 1 tsp of salt to be on the safe side.
