have you tried hummus?

mother is thinking about making hummus so we bought a can of chickpeas or garbanzos. i do remember what it looked like, but didn’t taste it. she said, “just process the chickpeas or garbanzos then add olive oil.” i’m not sure it’s that simple so i’m checking recipes online. we’re halfway through the arla garlic fresh cheese. (in the past, i bought arla herbs and spices fresh cheese.) i guess she wants hummus as a bread spread for a change. have you tasted hummus? do you make them or buy them? wikipedia says, "hummus or houmous is a dip or spread made from cooked, mashed chickpeas (garbanzos) or other beans, blended with tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and garlic. it is scooped with flatbread, such as pita or an accompaniment to falafel, grilled chicken, fish or eggplant.” ”garnishes include chopped tomato, cucumber, coriander, parsley, caramelized onions, sautéed mushrooms, whole chickpeas, olive oil, hard-boiled eggs, paprika, sumac, ful, olives, pickles and pine nuts. It is sometimes served with tortilla chips or crackers.” “chickpeas have appreciable amounts of dietary fiber, protein, B vitamins, manganese and other nutrients.”
