whatever you do, don't substitute peanut butter for tahini. Tastes terrible, and I consider it my first culinary failure...Some people suggest this but you will not have the same dish...The recipes currently posted should give you a good start, just taste and adjust according to your preference. For example, my husband only likes hummus when it has enough garlic in it to almost hurt you : )
