About Hummus, commercial
Hummus is the smooth, savory Middle Eastern dip blended from chickpeas, tahini (sesame paste), olive oil, garlic and lemon. Creamy and tangy, it's a staple spread and dip — scooped with pita and vegetables or smeared into wraps and bowls.
It carries the goodness of its main ingredients: plant protein and fiber from the chickpeas, heart-healthy unsaturated fats from the tahini and olive oil, plus folate, iron and magnesium. The fat makes it a little more calorie-dense than the chickpeas alone, but it's a genuinely nutritious way to add protein and fiber to a snack.
Versatile, satisfying and far more nutritious than most creamy dips, hummus is one of the easiest ways to make vegetables and bread more interesting — and more filling.
