Garlic and Spice Hummus

I learned how to make hummus from the middle eastern immigrant mother of one of my first boyfriends. She didn't use measuring, just kept adding and tasting till it was spicy and smooth, more like a light, creamy but slightly runny sauce than the paste that you can buy. At that consistency, it's a great, quick sauce for whole grain pasta with chopped calamata olive or capers, chopped fresh parsley and chopped fresh tomato. Toss a few whole garbanzos over it, and a final squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
