Best hummus & ethnic grocery stores

[shootingstar]

There are some really awesome recipes for self made hummus out there, of course this means that you won't be able to ( have to) spend quite so much time trekking to ethnic grocery stores.

marni

To me, it's no more extra time marni, than going to a mainstream supermarket.
I reduce the number of different mainstream supermarkets when I shop at these places.

They sell ordinary stuff too --red peppers, basil, fennel bulb, milk, eggs (fennel bulb is cheaper in Chinatown...because it's probably not common in Chinese cuisine!).

Just don't have a blender to any hummus or any blending stuff. I don't even make my own curry pastes. There is an Thai/Indonesian (I have to look at the container) brand that makes non-oily red, green curry pastes that I buy in ..bulk.

But I do homemade focaccia..
