As for "authentic" hummus, it depends on the recipe and the ingredients, not the ethnicity of the cook.

The stuff exported to europe and usa by tzabar and other companies tastes like shit,just like the stuff sold in supermarkets here. They substilute most of the thini with oil and use additives to inhance texture after its degraded. Also a high dose of preservative (pot. sorbate) is used to extend shelf life. On another note, Im a krayot guy and love eating at Saiid. I cant understand how the humus in abu hassan is served without fresh vegies! The real plessure is whiping humus with a piece of onion or a ripe tomato. I just made some humus today and have left over cooked (unhummused) beans which will be used for tomorows friday lunch :) Here is my secret: Some humust veriaties cannot be skin pealed by the towel trick before cooking. the skins are very hard to remove during cooking, they dont float. I cant imagine straining the cooking water and spending 30 minutes seperating skins. SOOOO... I run my hot soft humus through a fine seive. This is the secret to fine,not grainy hummus (like the one in saiiid). Enjoy.
