I would imagine there is a good reason Sally included peeling in her recipe. But...it took me... an hour and a half(!) (no exaggeration!) to peel what started out as 1 c. dry chickpeas. I'm all for traditional cooking, but...I just don't have that kind of time!

I read that, too, and was kind of bummed that I'd have to do all that work. :( Have you found anything else out? Mindy- I don’t know!

Do you peel your garbanzo beans? Sally Fallon's instructions are soak, peel, and cook. I'm finding the peeling is taking a enormously longer than I expected. Any thoughts? Help!

I have a friend who makes hummus in an Oster. We used to have a KA blender and we were really disappointed in it. That is just my opinion! :) We have our <strong><a target="_blank" href="http://secure.vitamix.com/redirect.aspx?index.aspx?COUPON=06-003502" rel="nofollow">Vita-Mix</a></strong> now and it works great for everything.

Here I am older, but you are the wiser with cooking. :lol: I am thankful for you, my friend. We began eating hummus last Spring, I believe it was. We have not tried homemaking it as of yet, though. We should, though! And now I know where to look for a recipe. ;) A KA blender is on that list of things to eventually get. I wonder if my less expensive blender (Oster, maybe?) will do the job well... Have a terrific Tuesday evening and a Wonderful Wednesday morning, too! :D Huggs, Robin :) I think that this is really wonderful.
