In reply to Stacey. I have not, Stacey! I am inclined to think I'd prefer to add roasted garlic when processing the hummus in the food processor!

Have you ever roasted the garlic first, before canning it?

In reply to Britt. Hi Britt- I only do the add ins when blending the hummus. I do not put them in the jars when I'm processing because different items are more or less suitable for pressure canning. Olive oil is not a good thing to add before canning because it can become rancid so easily.

Planning to make this today and add a few additional ingredients (spices, dried mushrooms) to some jars to experiment. Do you add olive oil at any point like most hummus recipes require?

Super excited about this recipe, we use a TON of hummus. Made a batch today, everything went perfectly smoothly (experienced canner), all of my jars sealed no problem, however all have the liquid level sitting at about half, and gauging by the clarity of the water in the canner there wasn’t much siphoning. Was just wondering if you’d ever experienced this, since all the pictures you’ve included in the post show a beautiful liquidy concoction right up to the headspace. Thanks so much if you have time to reply!

I didn’t see how many pints this makes?

In reply to Amy Werner. Hi Amy- I'd stick with the sesame seeds because I'm not sure how tahini behaves in the canning process. I'm not sure it would stay as stable as the seeds. You can always add a little more tahini to your hummus when you blend it!

In reply to Elizabeth. Hi Elizabeth! I'm not sure whether tahini is stable to can, so I'd probably stick with the sesame seeds.

Can you use tahini insures of sesame seeds

Instead of sesame seeds I use tahini when making hummus. I have never done the canned. Question could I use tahini? Doesn’t seem like enough seeds as I use 1/3 cup tahini for one 16 oz can chickpeas. Thanks
