    Second this. I’ve found that a “power soak” works pretty well and makes it feel a little less arduous.

    Just bring the dried peas to a boil for a minute and then heat off and soak for an hour (instead of overnight or whatever). I time this so I can walk the dogs while they soak. Then pressure cook – I try to do this on a night when we have leftovers so I’ll just reheat those and eat while they’re cooking – and then blend everything up and I’ve got enough fresh hummus for a week.

    Takes about two hours, but fits into my nightly routine very easily at it’s really only 10-15 minutes of active time cooking.
