Here’s another favorite recipe from my family, Hummus bi’Tahini. I have to admit that when we have the family over, it stays pretty traditional because that’s how they like it (though each of my kids makes theirs a little differently). When I entertain though, I love to take that walk on the wild side, getting a little crazy with different additions.
Some of your friends may not be adventurous enough to mix things up on their own, so it may help inspire them to try something new!
This time I used one of my favorite olives, the marinated and pitted colossal green, that you can find in your grocery store’s cold condiment section, usually near the cheeses. This has a little bit of heat and a salty bite that goes fabulous with cocktails. My ultimate drink with any of our Mediterranean meals is either Ouzo or Arak over ice, but that’s just me. Drink what you like and enjoy to the fullest!
