@jr A little kindness goes a long way, especially online. We all miss obvious things sometimes.
Love this! Few modifications that worked for me: I doubled the lemon, added a little more oil, toasted the coriander, roasted the garlic, and added a generous cracking of pepper melange (black, white, green and pink).
Yes, kindness especially appropriate in a post about bean dip.
Absolutely delicious! I used the miso and wouldn’t change a thing.
This is pretty good--but Melissa Clark's white bean hummus recipe here has bolder, more delicious flavors. (It makes twice as much but can easily be halved.) It has no tahini at all--not that I have anything against tahini!--and no cumin, and uses cumin instead of coriander. When I made this (coriander) one as directed, I found it comparatively bland and improved it by adding some coriander and red pepper flakes in hot oil at the end. But I was sorry I didn't stick with Melissa Clark's take.
