Well, having done both Egyptian and Greek cuisines, now we turn to Levantine cuisine, in particular Syria.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups dry chick peas
5 garlic cloves, roasted and minced
1/2 cup tahini
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp salt
Substitutions:
dry chick peas - 1 can chick peas
Preparation:
Soak chick peas overnight in water. Drain thoroughly, rinse, and boil for 3 hours, covered (or pressure cook for 8 minutes).
In a food processor or blender, add all ingredients and blend until a creamy paste is formed.
Serve with toasted pine nuts, cumin, and pita bread.
