I thought it was odd that you quoted my post 'as though' you were going to respond with something, who knows what? But instead you just echo'ed what I'd said.

I think I misread what you said. Sorry about that.

If they're made with anything other than chickpeas, they're not a traditional hummus. They're either bean dip or some kind of puréed vegetable, but not hummus.

That´s absolutely correct.
However, I´ve eaten many other Middle Eastern "dips", made with broad beans, or zucchini, or beans & yoghurt, which would be perfectly good substitutes.

This is an interesting/informative discussion.

I feel a bit sad in that, no matter how many I have tried, I just cannot enjoy hummus.

I have a distaste for chickpeas, in any form and that does not make me happy as, I am not a picky eater.

some places in israel will make it creamy and you don't notice the chickpeas very much.
when i say creamy i mean that it has a high fat content because of the added tahini and manybe even added oil....


it is interesting why it is called tahini in english....
in israel it's tahina and i think in arabic it's between tahini and tahina (but pronounced a bit different)
