    I just make my own. It’s really easy. It’s just a can of chickpeas (drained), a couple/three tablespoons of tahini, a couple/three tablespoons of olive oil, a few cloves of garlic, and a tablespoon or two of lemon juice. Add some cumin and paprika if you want it to taste like store bought. Throw all that in a blender or food processor for a couple minutes and you’ve got hummus. Then you can add as much red pepper as you want. Personally I like to make it with roasted and peeled Hatch or Pueblo chiles.

      I recently started using dried chicpeas cooked in an instant pot. It doesn’t make a HUGE difference, but I do think it’s a bit better for not much extra effort. I also experimented with adding konbu when cooking the peas. I think it did add some savoryness. Again not a huge difference but I did enjoy it.
