I had to laugh when there was so much buzz over that hummus recall, like it never occurred to anyone to make it themselves! It's pretty easy too, as you know. If you aren't in a big time crunch, I find it improves the hummus even more if you "peel" the garbanzo beans one by one before hand. It just takes a second to rub each one between your fingers.
