I enjoy good Hummus

In Canton the Sahara Grill has the best but in Cleveland Nate’s is so good.

If I have to buy it from the store the brand I like the best is Sabra “classic” and the “red pepper”.

Do you like Hummus?
Where do you go to get the best Hummus in your area?
What store brand do you buy or like?

yep, it's great.
we have occasionally made our own...(by we I mean my wife did, so don't ask me the recipe...)
I like that Sabra brand, usually get the one with the pine nuts or the red pepper.
Great with those toasted pita chips.

Loves me some good hummus. For store bought Sabra is definitely the best. Haven't made home made in a while, though it is really easy.

I'll be going to Israel this fall, so I'm pretty sure I'll get my hands on some good hummus while I'm there.

I love hummus. I've made my own a few times, but I'm not picky. The more garlic the better as far as I am concerned.

For those that make their own, where do you find the tahini paste in the supermarket?

The Wife bought some Hummus a few months ago after sampling it at the store. I tried it and it tasted like ground cardboard. Now I kid her everytime we see the commercial saying 'Delicious Hummus' on TV.

...you can make your own tahini paste. It's nothing more than sesame seeds that you bake for 10 or 15 mins and then put in a food processor with olive oil. Make sure it's thick!
