Hey there! I made some hummus the other day and it is just WAY too garlicky. And I say this as a person who has never encountered what seems like too much garlic--I love it, and tons of it. But this hummus is just too overpowering, even for me. I added another can of chickpeas, but that didn't help. So now I have a large batch of hummus that is way too garlicky and I don't know what to do about it.
Is there something I can add to it to tone the garlic down? Or something else I can turn it into that will mask the garlic?
Usually, when I make hummus, I saute the garlic for just a couple of minutes. This time, I just minced it and tossed it in the blender. I didn't really think about it at the time, but that's the only thing I can think of that I did differently; I used 6 large cloves, like I always do.
Thanks for your help!
