Yes, it is generally spelled "hummus." But the link you provided doesn't
tell how to make it, which is what I think the OP wanted.
Here are a few recipes from foodnetwork.com:
Turbo Hummus

Show: Good Eats Episode: Pantry Raid II: Cool Beans
2 to 3 cloves garlic
1 can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained and liquid reserved
2 to 3 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
A handful fresh parsley leaves
1 lemon, zested and juiced
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
Pinch kosher salt
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Chop the garlic finely in a food processor. Add the beans and 1/2 of the
reserved liquid and process finely or to desired consistency. Add the peanut
butter, parsley, lemon zest and juice, black pepper, and salt. Process until
it forms a paste. Drizzle in the olive oil and process until it reaches the
consistency of mayonnaise.
BOB'S NOTES:
1. This is the recipe I usually follow, but in a blatant departure from
tradition, I cut down the garlic to a single clove, then I add some
chile-garlic sauce for heat and a couple steamed carrots for sweetness.
2. I serve hummus with toasted pita triangles or bagel chips. It's also good
with focaccia.
Chickpea Spread with Sesame Seed Paste: Hummus bi Tahina
Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse
Show: Emeril Live Episode: Greek Specialties
2 cups canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons tahini paste
1 tablespoon garlic
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more, for drizzling
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup kalamata olives, pitted
Fresh pita bread
In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, combine the chickpeas,
lemon juice, tahini paste, and garlic. Process until smooth. With the
machine running, add 1/4 cup olive oil, a little at a time. Season with salt
and pepper.
Spoon the hummus in the center of a large platter. Drizzle the hummus
with olive oil. Arrange the black olives and fresh pita bread around the
hummus.
RISA G'S KICK-BUTT HUMMUS
Recipe courtesy Risa Golding
Show: Food Network Specials Episode: Eat the Heat
8 cloves roasted garlic, about 1/2 head
8 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
4 ounces lemon juice
4 ounces tahini
3/4 teaspoon red savina habanero chile powder
3/4 teaspoon smoked chocolate habanero chile powder
Ground cumin
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Cilantro, finely chopped
Olive oil
Pita bread
Press out roasted garlic. Place both fresh and roasted garlic into a food
processor and process until finely chopped. Add chickpeas, lemon juice,
tahini, habanero powders, cumin, salt and pepper to taste, and a bit of
cilantro if desired. Process until chickpeas reach a smooth texture. With
processor running, add olive oil in a thin stream until hummus reaches the
desired consistency. Taste and add salt to taste.
To serve, remove to a serving bowl and surround with triangles of pita
bread. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and garnish with chopped cilantro.
Add a shake of habanero powder for color, if you dare!
You may choose to hold the habanero powders out of the processing and divide
the hummus into 2 bowls. Then add half of both of the habanero powders to 1
bowl and serve the other bowl mild.
