Hummus is one of the most popular dips across the world. Originating in the Middle East with a huge range of methods and versions from different countries and cultures, this delicious dish has become a staple of many people’s diets. The classic hummus is made using chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil, but this tasty dip can be made with whatever you like. Here are three varieties to try making at home.
Beetroot Hummus
Beetroot is incredibly healthy and is an amazing addition to hummus. Not only does it add a lovely earthy flavor, but it also brings a stunning pink color to the dish. Simply add some cooked beetroot to a basic hummus recipe before blending.
Broad Bean Hummus
Broad beans are a wonderful ingredient. They’re packed of vitamins and minerals, while also being high in protein and delicious. They’re a perfect substitute for chickpeas in a tasty dip, so simply cook some to use in your hummus.
Red Lentil Hummus
Another incredible legume that’s not only super healthy but also very tasty. If you want to compliment the subtle savory flavor of the lentils you could add some sundried tomatoes to the hummus before blending as well, and this will bring out the pretty red color even more.
