TRANSCRIPT
Sometimes when you make hummus from scratch the beans can create a gritty texture. The way to avoid that is to add a teaspoon of baking soda for every pound of dry garbanzo beans. If you use dried instead of canned you're going to get a much more buttery hummus. Soak them eight to twelve hours. Rinse them off and then boil them for an hour and fifteen minutes. Blend with any of your favorite hummus recipes and you have hummus as it should be. Creamy, buttery, delicious, and you can eat it with anything.
