I love to use roasted garlic in mine, I do cheat with canned garbanzo beans. I have not seen them dry in my area ever. I have learned that not all tahini is the same and try to get the good stuff. This is the one time I do buy olive oil instead of my usual avocado oil. But I am wondering how it would be with the garlic truffle oil I have. I do like to use fresh lemon juice as well.
