October 2, 2022

The beneficial properties of hummus for the body are better known to residents of the Mediterranean and the Middle East. In Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, this appetizer has been prepared since the 13th century. Despite its exoticism, over the past decades, hummus has managed to win the recognition of many gourmets and enter the diet of those people who adhere to proper nutrition. The dish is a paste of a homogeneous consistency, which can be spread on bread or served as a sauce. The basis is chickpeas, olive oil, sesame seeds, garlic or aromatic herbs. Hummus contains omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which contribute to the removal of “bad” cholesterol and cleanse blood vessels, which helps normalize blood pressure.
