- You do not need to remove the skins from the chickpeas.
- You can use jarred roasted red peppers and take the help from the store, or roast your own in a 475 F degree oven for roughly 45 minutes. I prefer using store-bought when I am short on time.
- For a classic hummus, simply leave out the red peppers and follow the rest of the recipe.
- This hummus stores great in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days or can be frozen in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months.
