About Chumus
Chumus, also known as hummus, is a creamy, nutritious spread with origins in Middle Eastern cuisine. Made primarily from cooked, blended chickpeas, tahini (sesame seed paste), olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and spices, it offers a rich, savory flavor. Chumus is revered for its health benefits due to its plant-based ingredients. Chickpeas provide a good source of protein, fiber, and essential minerals like iron and magnesium, supporting digestion and sustained energy. Olive oil contributes heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while tahini delivers additional protein and calcium. However, the calorie content can vary depending on the amount of oil or tahini used, so portion control is key. Often paired with pita bread, veggies, or spread atop dishes, chumus is a versatile, nutrient-rich staple that fits into vegan, vegetarian, and Mediterranean diets alike.
