About Original hummus

Original hummus is a creamy and flavorful spread made primarily from cooked, mashed chickpeas blended with tahini (ground sesame seeds), lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. Originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, hummus is a timeless dish enjoyed globally for its rich, nutty taste and versatility. Packed with plant-based protein and fiber from chickpeas, it supports digestion and helps keep you full. Tahini and olive oil contribute heart-healthy fats, while lemon juice and garlic provide antioxidants and vitamins. Naturally free of gluten and dairy, it’s suitable for various dietary needs. However, its fat content can add up depending on portion size and additional toppings like extra oil or pine nuts. Whether paired with vegetables, spread on bread, or used as a dip, original hummus is a wholesome, nutrient-rich option that balances deliciousness with health benefits.
