Hummus is one of the best foods for picnics, snacks, starters, and side dishes. Not only is it light and tastes great, but it is also packed full of important nutrients such as protein. But what foods are best to eat with hummus? Here are some of the sides that help bring out the best of any hummus.
Pepper Crackers
These thin crackers seasoned with sea salt and large peppercorns are a great accompaniment to all kinds of hummus. In addition to original chickpea hummus, they go particularly well with red pepper hummus and caramelized onion hummus.
Carrots and Cucumber
Perhaps the healthiest option is to dunk sticks of carrot and cucumber into the hummus jar. These are cheap, quick, and easy to prepare. They also give a satisfying crunch to each mouthful.
Focaccia
Focaccia is one of the tastiest accompaniments to hummus. It really helps to bring out the flavor of the hummus alongside its own party of flavor. Rosemary and caramelized onion focaccia are particularly good.
Fresh Bread
One of the simplest but most rewarding accompaniments to hummus is freshly baked bread. Preferably still warm and with a hard crunch to the crust, each mouthful leaves you wanted more.
