Do I use the "as is" in hummus recipes, or do I need to add somethign to it first?

Lemon, garlic, olive oil added to cooked chick peas (little salt) can chick peas (none), Spice choice depends upon who will share. I can always spice up my serving, but I cannot take the spices out for the spouse or guest pallets.

Deean use the tahini just as it is right out of the container. Make sure to mix it up thoroughly in the container before measuring it out, as it settles and the natural oils rise to the top. I use a long tea spoon and get all the way down to the bottom of the container and really mix it up good. Hope that is helpful. Brett

Hi Deean, The way I make hummus is I first mix the Lior tahini pase in a blender with water, lemon juice and fresh garlic. When it reaches the right consistency, I add the chickpeas. If it is too thick, I add more water and adjust the seasoning to my taste.

This product is the main ingredient hummus other than the garbanzo beans (chick peas). It should be used as is but remember to stir it up before adding as it has a tendency to separate after it sits for a while. Also there is a recipe for Tahina on the side of jar. Tahina is basically hummus without the garbanzo beans and is perfectly suitable as a dip and is much smoother than hummus.

I see SALT and Peanut Oil as additives. It might mean that they are roasted in peanut oil... would be nice of COSTCO to label the product accordingly.

Yay! I hope you like it as much as I do. Plan on getting used to it for a few days. Add things like banana and peanut butter, or blueberries, at first so that you get used to the flavor. Enjoy!

I would recommend using one of the recipes from the included cook book or use the one from Betty Crocker cook book. But you could use either mix in a pinch though neither will come out as well as using a recipe.

Tom, thank you for your reply. I went to Grazia's website and asked the same question. Hopefully they will email the recipes to me. We'll see. Thanks again.

Thanks for the post, I'm just trying to make some ice cream but every recipe in my book says "heavy milk"; I'm going to try to find heavy cream and use it in my recipe.

Just check "medium." Sometimes this might not be what you want so just do what I do, if my meat does not come out the way I want it the first time, I just make a note and the next time I just use my own calculations.

It all depends on your recipe. I usually find a recipe that calls for almond flour rather than just substitute it myself as a direct replacement for flour.

No, you reallyneed to add vegetable broth and Spike (a veggie spice). I make an awesome faux chix salad adding Veganaise, green onions, pistachios, grapes, etc.

As your name would suggest I would think you are vegan. In that case I would recommend contacting the seller directly to ensure they have Halva that is not sweetened with Honey. Some versions can use honey instead of sugar as the sweetener.

I have made Hummus with this product and it works perfectly. In fact, that's why I purchased it and I love it!!

Cover beans with water, 1 to 2 inches over the beans; soak overnight. Pour into a strainer and rinse. Return to pan and cover with water, 2 to 3 inches over beans as they will expand during cooking. You can add salt if you wish. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer 60 to 90 minutes depending on how firm you want them. I like to make hummus so cook mine on the longer side. If you like a firmer bean for salads and stews, cook them around 60 minutes and check them. I also cook a larger amount, drain and dry them, put them in 2 cup serving sizes then freeze them.

In My Opinion, Its Not Much Different Than Using Lard. i Only Add About 1/4 c. To My Recipe. Has Made a Big Difference As Far As Humidity Goes. Taste Is Better And Lighter And Fluffier Consistency. TooExpensive To Use To Completely Replace Regular Shortening.

Toasted, I think, has more flavor, so raw would be milder. Some might call it boring. The black sesame seed makes good hummus, too, and it's got a much stronger flavor, sort of like the toasted.

I had the same question. If it's kosher there will usually be U inside an O, or some other symbol.

I don't know. We only use F. & it was a gift for my kids. But I'll bet you could use both--one or the other
