    Super easy & super yummy! I use a little less olive oil and a little more garlic and a few dashes of hot sauce, I also save a small piece of the pepper, dice and garnish the top after drizzling with oil. I have made this several times and my husband and I never get tired of it.

    One again Emeril delivers...great tasty hummus recipe and equally excellent nicely-seasoned pita chips. I use whole grain pitas and they work excellently.

    For all those who don't get why Emeril has you mash the garlic with the salt and prefer the shortcut of just tossing it all in the Cuisie...here is why: mashing garlic w/salt is a very traditional middle eastern cooking technique; the reason why it is done is that the salt helps the garlic break down into a velvety paste so you don't get stray chunks in your finished hummus, AND the salt also quickly 'cures' the raw garlic, taking the harsh, raw edge off it. By including this step, it shows Emeril clearly has done proper research.

    Great recipe, and Emeril rocks!

    This is my husband's favorite snack. I made some changes to the recipe. I do not use tahini. I add a few olives stuffed with Jalapeños and a little more olive oil and a little extra heat.

    Really simple and delicious. Just the right amount of spices. Skipped the extra oil and parsley but it would be just as good with it. This makes 4 cups of hummus so I sent some for afternoon snack with my husband. His office mates loved it.
