The first part of this hummus post was a more traditional garlic chickpea hummus that I posted wednesday.
This is a more unusual hummus. I am trying out a combination of peas, cumin and mint on top of the more traditional ingredients such as tahini and olive oil.
It’s definitely a different taste from normal hummus. The peas are quite mild and the mint adds a nice bite.
I served it with cut veggies, but I think it would be great on crackers.
