I came across your site a couple of months ago and I’ve tried a few of your recipes. Your ricotta recipe and this hummus recipe…amazing! Love your videos, they are simple and quick! Great job and keep up the ‘yummy’ good work!
Have a nice day,
Carmen
Awesome! Thanks so much, Carmen!
As tedious as the task seems, I refuse to make homemade hummus without de-shelling the chickpeas first. You are completely right, very smooth and silky texture.
This hummus DOES look perfect! I can totally see why it’s the best!
Removing the chickpea skins really is key! It’s crazy how much of a difference it makes.
I just discovered your website. Love it! And great tip to remove the skin.
Thanks so much, Kimberly, and welcome to Just a Taste! :)
Hi Kelly and Happy New Year, Just found your blog and love it. The videos are an inspiration (just started to play with video for my food blog down under in Australia). I think I might have to procure your book too, looks interesting.

Thanks so much and can’t wait to try your homemade baguette recipe :)
I could eat my body weight in hummus! And I have to try that bacon scallion hummus.
I’m right there with you, Jackie!
Love the awesome tip, Kelly!!!!
Thanks so much, Julie!
I have never tried removing the skin of the chickpeas. Great tip! Oh and I always add roasted garlic too. So good! :)
Thanks, Tieghan! I couldn’t believe what a difference it made in the texture!
