Hummus does freeze very nicely. As others have mentioned, simply give it a stir when it thaws. As far as Tahini goes, it does not need refrigeration. Being of Lebanese descent, Tahini is a staple in my home and I have never had it go bad and I've kept it in the pantry for months at a time. The...

GE Cafe Range Thanks for the input. I also have a GE range and dishwasher and have not had a problem in 15 years. I use my range quite a bit for stove top cooking and the oven for baking and roasting and don't have any problems with it. My mother has all gas and she claims that you can't beat...
