Homemade hummus is easy to make and tastes much better than anything you can buy at the store. You will need tahini, a paste made from sesame seeds. Buy it or make it yourself. Here’s our homemade tahini recipe, which I highly recommend for the best homemade hummus! To leave it out, add more olive oil.
