Hummus sometimes includes tahini, a paste made from ground sesame seeds. If you have some on hand, add a teaspoon or so. Believe it or not, peanut butter (creamy, not chunky) is a great “fake-out” for the tahini flavor.
WOW I need to try this!! I'm not a fan of the garlic taste in hummus, do you recommend a substitution? Angie
ReplyDeleteYou could try purring roasted red peppers and adding to your hummus. Or leave out the garlic and load up on lemon juice and spices. All delicious alternatives.
