Hummus Recipe

hummus recipe
Hummus is an inexpensive, high-fiber and protein-packed food, yet only a few home chefs dabble in this dip. This Middle Eastern mixture of chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans, and tahini has endless possibilities, so there's no reason for hummus humdrum.

    Yes, that’s correct!

    I am allergic to sesame. Any ideas what I could use in place of tahini for flavor?


  • Blendtec

    You could try natural peanut butter. Just be aware that it’ll change the taste. There really isn’t a great substitute for tahini so you could just leave it out.

    Can dried chickpeas be used instead of canned ones?


  • Blendtec

    You don’t want to use dried ones as-is when making hummus but you can soak and cook them first and then use them!
