#hummus

For us, hummus is like bread: something that should be made fresh daily. In our restaurants, we make a batch every day.

During a kitchen renovation, having shelf-stable food options like hummus can help prevent hunger while appliances are out of commission.

Instead of just trying a bit, I fully committed, adding hummus to just about everything I ate for a week.

"Pumpkin hummus? The idea of combining that ubiquitous fall vegetable with chickpeas into a savory hummus seemed a little odd at first. Alex and I were a bit wary, but loved the idea of a seasonal pumpkin hummus. And now we're converts! It's surprisingly good: creamy, savory and with an undertone of autumnal goodness."

"Just because a dish is made for you doesn't mean you can't spruce it up. It doesn't take much to rev up the contents of a plain package of store-bought hummus."

A plethora of Mediterranean countries claim to have invented hummus, leading to political controversies. Different forms and variations exist worldwide, including unconventional ingredients like chocolate.
