This is all wrong! You should use dried chickpea, soak it for a night, make the burgers then deep-fry them. This way you get the right taste and texture.shooky @ hummus bloghttp://hummus101.com/ENnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-89865524195283285742007-04-05T09:10:00.000+01:002007-04-05T09:10:00.000+01:00@KA,<BR/>i keep reminding him that;)<BR/><BR/>@mallika,<BR/>oh...sorry to know that. i guess it differes from country to country. he he he... did he knew what tahini was? i stick to burgers at pubs cox thats the only best thing i got to eat in most of the pubs here:)<BR/><BR/>@kanchana,<BR/>thanks lady. i will wait for u to post ur hummus recipe. there r so many different recipes to make it and i was otally confused as which one to follow:)Sia's Cornerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04874841151742437150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-17487484978376493652007-04-05T00:06:00.000+01:002007-04-05T00:06:00.000+01:00I love hummus.
