Salt & Pepper to taste ... also, add fresh parsley to enhance its beauty!!

cumin, don't forget the cumin!

I also usually add corriander rather than parsley, and put in a couple chili peppers to spice it up.

paprika's good, too.

hmm cumin!! I like cumin. I try cumin at least once or twice a week. In fact, I think it would be fair to say I would like cumin more often, maybe even daily.

I add a little sesame oil as well!

Isn't tahini ground sesame seeds?

Yes. I also add Sesame oil as well, though. Strengthens the flavour and produces a smoother humous (can substitute olive oil, too).

It's hard to find basic tahini, though. My local Real stopped stocking it and now only sells Tahini with Honey, which is too sweet for humous.

Can I just say and not wishing to sound pedantic but it is spelt Hummous. Humous is the stuff you get from your compost after it has been sitting in the composter for a few months...Hmm is there much of a difference??? laugh.gif

Ignore the previous answer, I had this argument with my Husbnad and he has just proven to me that there are numerous spellings. Enjoy your goop on toast anyway!! tongue.gif
