Tips/Hints:
I didn't have tahini or ground cumin - but I did have sesame seeds, cumin seeds and my lovely TMX.  So I ground this up, then added 1 tbsp EVOO, didn't quite make tahini but close enough and the only other thing I added a little sumac and a sprig of coriander & parsley at the end.  Yummo.

Made this today to use up some of the mini cans of 4 bean mix we had in the pantry.  It was a very tasty alternative to normal hummus, and the texture was a little coarser.  But it was lovely, and I would make it again.  Thanks Viv!
