The skins float to the top, where they can be skimmed off.

Its not necessary to get every last one off, so leave the stubborn ones.

In a food processor or with a blender, pulse the chickpeas until just pureed.

Add the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, olive oil, tahini and lemon juice and blend until smooth.
