The best way to make hummus is by taste and eye, The techniques I learned while working with a top end caterer in Chicago (who also taught me some fabulous chicken recipes, but more on them another time).

Pork Stuffed Squid
This is my all time favourite recipe for summer grilling in the back yard, and is a little bit different from those chicken recipes that have been handed down to you from your mother!
