This hummus with beetroot, pink pepper, and nuts is meant to be an easy flavor booster for drinks, lunch, or a small table full of bites. The base comes together quickly, and you can easily adjust the flavor with oil, herbs, acidity, or extra crunch.
Prefer to keep the texture a little coarse rather than completely smooth. That way, the dip or spread stays easy to scoop and you can taste the ingredients better.
Why choose hummus with beetroot?
Hummus is comfort food at its best, but with beetroot you not only add a beautiful color, but also a subtle sweetness to your dip. Pink pepper and nuts create a surprising twist that pairs perfectly with the creamy character of chickpeas. Especially when combined with the high-quality products of Nicolas Vahé, which bring every detail of your dish to life.
