Hummus is just one of those things—everyone claims ownership and everyone has a different recipe. Wars have been fought over it—well not quite, but a documentary (“Make Hummus not War”) compared dozens of versions by possessive Middle Eastern cooks. With olives and cumin and no garlic, Robert’s recipe is unusual, but above all he uses ice, and says, “I prefer my hummus very smooth so I tend to add all the ice at once and blend for a long time.”
