Hommus, hummus, hommos, houmous…however you spell it, you’ll love getting your laughing gear around this quick and easy oil-free dip.
Great served with various crudités, crackers or chunks of Turkish bread.
You can also use it instead of butter, for instance as a spread or try it dolloped on baked potatoes – delicious!
