Hi there, In Israel and all over the Middle East – Hummus is a basic, staple food in its basic form (feel free to visit my new blog here and view my recipe). But over the past decade or so it has become only the base for so many delicious, nutritious recipes.
It is one of my favorite foods. It is so versatile.
Yes, indeed. Feel free to visit my blog. I’ll soon be adding more Hummus recipes.
