Throughout the year, I often prepare this hummus (spread) with both chickpeas and beans. I frequently try many more hummus combinations. It's a healthy recipe rich in nutrients. It's refreshing for the summer and works well not only as a snack but also to accompany delicious meat or fish dishes.

The variety of hummus depends on you; it's in your hands. Just let your imagination run free and try unique but exquisite flavors. Spices and aromatic herbs play with the flavor on your palate. The herbs can be fresh or dried, depending on your taste and what you have available.

I serve hummus for breakfast with vegetable sticks or whole-grain crackers, as a snack, appetizer, or to accompany meat and fish dishes.

Hummus holds a special place in vegetarian diets and health food stores. It's nutrient-rich and pleasant in taste.

Hummus can be made not only with chickpeas and beans but also with dried peas, lupins, soybeans, fava beans, lentils, etc. There's a great opportunity to make your homemade hummus, which is very easy but delicious and healthy.

Hummus has the consistency of a spread, and nowadays, almost everyone is making it in their kitchen. Eating delicious and healthy food is very important for our health.

dipping

Cooking Instructions

10 minutes
  1. 1

    Rinse the chickpeas with cold water under the tap and let them drain in a colander. Place the chickpeas in a blender. Wash the parsley sprigs and red bell pepper and chop them. Add to the blender with the chickpeas. Peel the garlic and add it along with the thyme, lemon juice, salt, a good splash of extra virgin olive oil, tahini, and ground black peppercorns to taste.

  2. 2

    Next, blend the ingredients with an immersion blender until you get a thick, smooth mixture. It's best to add the vegetable broth gradually to avoid overdoing it.

  3. 3

    Pour the hummus into a container. Sprinkle some dried or fresh thyme leaves on top and decorate with lemon pieces. Cover with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.

  4. 4

    You can eat it with crudité sticks like carrots, zucchini, bell peppers, celery stalks, etc. It can also be spread on bread or whole-grain or seed crackers.

  5. 5

    This time, we prepared a nice lettuce salad with bell peppers and tomatoes, dressed with lemon, salt, and extra virgin olive oil, and fried eggs to accompany the hummus.

  6. 6

    What do you think? You can also use hummus as a side for grilled or pan-seared meat and fish dishes.
