If you have time and are after an ultra-smooth hummus, take a cue America’s Test Kitchen and Yotam Ottolonghi and toss rinsed and drained canned chickpeas with 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda. Heat them in the microwave or a skillet over medium for 2 to 3 minutes then rinse. Cover the beans with cold water, then agitate the beans with your hands to remove the skins. Discard skins and add beans to food processor.
