Steps:
- Soak the chickpeas overnight in a large bowl of cold water with one tablespoon of baking soda.
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas and put them in a large pan. Add water until it reaches an inch above the chickpeas. Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda and bring to a boil. Cook covered over low heat for 2 to 3 hours, until the chickpeas are very soft. Cool slightly, drain and save some of the cooking liquid.
- Put the chickpeas in a food processor, add 2/3 cup of the tahini and process until almost smooth. If the paste is too thick, add a few tablespoons of the cooking liquid. Season with lemon, garlic and salt; taste and adjust the seasoning. For a richer creamier version, add the remaining tahini and process until the hummus is completely smooth and fluffy.
