I have to disagree with Sporto2 - REVITHOSALATA is definitely on a Greek taverna menu! Any tavernas I've frequented in Thessaloniki (live there the last 9 years have it on their menu.
Anyway - doesn't matter where it came from, the recipe is easy to do and yummy!!! Have to say though - PNSMOM is right!!! If you're making it all your life, why read a recipe for it??? :

Good hummus recipe! I added fresh cilantro as that was what I had on hand. And to all the reviewers who are Middle Eastern and have been making "way better hummus all our lives"...why are you looking up hummus recipes? Just sayin...
