Recently, I was searching through my pinned and bookmarked recipes and realized I have a handful of hummus recipes I need to try out. (I've never actually made hummus from scratch and this is the summer I change all that!)
Here's a round-up of some of the very best hummus recipes I've found and am dying to try!
1. Sweet Corn + Roasted Jalapeno Hummus 2. Cilantro, Lime, and White Bean Hummus 3. Buffalo Wing Hummus & 4. Spicy Black Bean Hummus
What's your favorite homemade hummus recipe?

I love me some hummus. Fortunately, my aunt bought me a subscription to Cook's Illustrated last year and one of the summer issues included a recipe and technique for what I like to call the most awesome hummus ever!
I think the secret is emulsifying the dip when you add the olive oil--it just makes it light and airy. Well, that and adding a crap-ton of garlic. That helps too.

This is my all-time favorite hummus recipe (and, fine, okay, the only one I've ever actually made at home): http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Hummus-237832
It's a great starter recipe. I usually find it needs much more lemon, and I think a little lemon zest helps perk it up too. I leave the cumin out because cumin and I are enemies. The only problem is that when I make it I can't stop eating it. Let us know how they all turn out! (Buffalo hummus - why didn't I think of that?!)
