Probably garbanzos come in a 15-ounce can, which is probably close to 2 cups.Margohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345165456341197559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-86934785839098030262011-08-25T12:30:51.248-04:002011-08-25T12:30:51.248-04:00Been saving this recipe in my "To Try" f...Been saving this recipe in my "To Try" file and am going to make it today! Question: "cooked" garbanzos - please define "cooked". Right out of the can, or should I do something to them first? Can't wait to make this... :)<br />chinamama4@gmail.comChinamama4http://allmysisters.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-4129139116909852412011-07-20T18:20:04.207-04:002011-07-20T18:20:04.207-04:00I am perhaps a PB-aholic.

When I found the cookbook in the $5 clearance bin at the bookstore I felt like it was just MEANT for me.<br /><br />Though the whole book was good, the hummus recipe is probably the one that makes the most frequent appearance at our house because, quite frankly, tahini can be expensive!BLD in MThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08497511995276601468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-3896695026223504082011-07-18T21:09:36.386-04:002011-07-18T21:09:36.386-04:00BLD, peanut butter is a clever substitute! thank y...BLD, peanut butter is a clever substitute! thank you.Margohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345165456341197559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-9485904811116254692011-07-18T18:26:27.268-04:002011-07-18T18:26:27.268-04:00I can remember a time when cooking without measure...I can remember a time when cooking without measurements seemed like some sort of magic sorcery that I would never get a handle on. Ha! Practice make prefect! Okay, not perfect, but yummy and certainly edible!<br /><br />When we don't have tahini we use peanut butter.

Thank you so much!! Can't ...Bless you, Margo!! Thank you so much!! Can't wait to try it. My hummus always seems a bit bland. I think I'm not giving it enough acidity, or something.<br /><br />I take your approach with cooking as well. Please, no precision in measurements. I sort of cook from the hip. Sometimes it ends in brilliance and sometimes not, but it is so much fun!<br /><br />Thank you again...ever so much! Will try to whip this up this week!!Pollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09403233175071026416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-41286006085258838932011-07-10T17:55:59.837-04:002011-07-10T17:55:59.837-04:00Pass me a pita and some of that hummus!

Good for you for doing your homework! I just made the opposite switch after many years - from bold and dark to barely there. Change is fun.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07759532237777191430noreply@blogger.com
