Lol. I overheard this exact scenario.

A white lady asks a middle eastern woman how to make humous properly, like what she brought for lunch.

The woman replies that you soak the chick peas, boil them, then pinch off the outer skin and just keep the pea, then roast the sesame seeds, and blend it all with garlic, oil, lemon, pepper, salt, etc.

The white lady says, You actually pinch the skin off every single chick pea?

Yes, if you want the smooth consistancy, rather than mealy/grainy texture.

White Lady:That sounds like too much work, I'll just leave the chick peas out of the recipe altogether.
