Traditional Hummus
Hummus can be enjoyed at any time of the day from breakfast to dinner. It is usually served with toasted pita bread either by itself or as an accompaniment to several dishes.Hummus is a dip with Mediterranean flavors in which the very pronounced taste of chickpeas complements the subtle taste of tahini (sesame puree) to combine with the lemon and garlic aroma and the sweet essence of paprika.
