    I’ve tried this and must say, I did not notice a difference between skinning the peas and leaving them be. I tend to keep the ingredients in the blender for ~5 minutes (on high), and gradually feed in the necessary amount of oil to keep it going.

    Hi Ila, you can add 1tbs of cumin powder, it adds nice taste :). I like your blog and your photos!

    It takes 8 hours?? Doing what? I was just wondering because it seems all you do it boil the chickpeas for 1 hour, and the rest isn’t that long of a process….just saying ;D Want to make sure I’m not missing something.

    • Gald that you asked 🙂 Actually I mentioned in my recipe ” (Soaked in water overnight than boiled or steamed)” So I basically included those hours also in prep time.

  5. How long should I boil the chickpeas?

    good trick! I also like to use a little non fat greek yogurt in lieu of the tahini – it is lower in fat and makes the end result super creamy :).
