Here we go!! A new approach. We will take the contents of one case of chick peas and follow the recipe below: 53 cups of chick peas (drained- save liquid) 18 cups of chick pea liquid 12 cups tahin 70 teaspoons (1-1/2 cups) of chopped garlic 70 teaspoons (1-1/2 cups) of ground cumin 175 Tablespoons (11 cups) lemon juice 8-3/4 cups of olive oil. Make small batches to insure that we do not make a mistake and ruin the whole recipe. My suggestion. Using a food processor, homogenize the garlic and the juice from the chick peas so that all of the garlic is broken down into fine particles. Then add the chick peas. Blend and add cumin. Blend and add tahin. Blend and add olive oil. Blend and add the lemon juice. Small batches of garlic and chick pea juice can be homogenized using a food processor. One blended, that can be transferred to a bigger mixing machine and the other ingredients added. Eddy Kebabjian
