Once you make this homemade hummus, you may never buy grocery store hummus again. Spread on a plate, hummus may be served as an appetizer and made more visually appealing by topping it with olive oil, fresh chopped parsley and toasted pine nuts. Hummus may also be used as a condiment for fish or meat or spread on sandwiches. It may also be used as a base for a hummus bowl, with protein and fresh vegetables.
This authentic recipe is extraordinarily easy. To firm it up, I refrigerate it before serving, but that step is completely optional.
