Chickpea sauce is a creamy, nutrient-packed condiment made primarily from blended chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil, often seasoned with herbs and spices like cumin or paprika. This delicious sauce is commonly associated with Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, where it’s used in dishes like falafel wraps, roasted vegetable bowls, or as a dip for breads and crackers. Rich in plant-based protein, fiber, and essential vitamins like folate and iron, chickpea sauce is a heart-healthy option that supports digestion and sustains energy. The olive oil adds healthy fats, while the garlic and lemon contribute antibacterial and antioxidant properties. However, depending on preparation, high salt or oil content can increase sodium and calories, so moderation is key for balanced nutrition. Versatile and easy to make, chickpea sauce is both a wholesome addition to meals and a delicious way to explore global flavors.
