Garlic Hummus Recipe

Many people think making homemade hummus is hard, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. I like to keep the simple ingredients for this recipe on hand to whip up a batch of hummus when the craving hits.

I’ve made this recipe for birthday parties, holiday parties, and even a healthier snack for kids.

Just be sure you have various dipping options on hand so everyone can dip the day away and enjoy each bite.

What to dip in garlic hummus?

Raw vegetables such as carrots, bell peppers, and cucumbers provide a refreshing and crunchy contrast to the smooth and garlicky hummus.

Pita bread or tortilla chips give the dip a hearty base that can withstand its thick consistency. Alternatively, pretzels or crackers provide a salty and crunchy counterpart to the hummus’s richness.

The versatility of garlic hummus allows for a wide range of dipping options, making it a versatile and satisfying snack.

What happens if you put too much tahini in hummus?

Excessive amounts of tahini in hummus result in an overpowering nutty flavor and an unpleasantly thick and grainy texture.

Additionally, the excessive bitterness of tahini hinders the overall balance of hummus, making it less enjoyable to consume.

As such, measuring and adding tahini in moderation is crucial to ensure that the dip maintains an optimal taste and consistency.

While tahini plays an integral role in hummus, it is important to exercise caution when determining the appropriate amount to incorporate in the recipe.
