Cooking with Sam Seideman: Basic, Delicious Hummus Recipe
Chef’s Tips:
Use this recipe as a basic hummus recipe.
Sam likes to add ingredients like sun-dried tomatoes, pesto, roasted garlic, etc. to this hummus to jazz it up a bit.
For a creamier hummus, save chickpea liquid. Then, add a little bit to the hummus after adding your olive oil.

Hundreds Join Bluefish Tournament as a 17 Pounder Tops the List for $25k Prize
After hundreds joined in on the Long Island Sound Bluefish Tournament this weekend, Joseph Gallo pulled up this 17.27lb blue this afternoon that topped the charts as he weighed in at Fisherman’s Paradise in Milford. The grand prize for the tournament is $25,000, with dozens of Westporters heading onto the Sound today for their chance at the cash after yesterday’s small craft advisory forced many boats to remain at port.
