This Everything Hummus is impossibly smooth, deeply savory, and topped with our Calicutts Everything Blend for that craveable everything-bagel crunch in every scoop. Made from scratch with chickpeas, tahini, fresh lemon, and garlic — then processed until truly silky — it’s leagues better than anything from a tub, and it comes together in about ten minutes. Finished with a generous drizzle of olive oil, a shower of Everything Blend, and fresh herbs, it’s the ultimate party dip and a meal-prep staple you’ll want on hand all week. Serve it with warm pita and crisp crudité for an easy, healthy crowd-pleaser that works for game day, mezze night, lunchboxes, or anytime snacking. One bowl and people gather.

    • ⅓ C Fresh lemon juice

    blank

    • 2 Tbsp Calicutts Everything Blend

    • A drizzle of good olive oil

    • Fresh herbs (parsley, dill, chives)

    blank

    • Crudité — carrots, radishes, cucumber, snap peas, bell pepper

    • Warm pita wedges or pita chips

    Directions

    1. In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt, and cumin. Process for 4 minutes — long enough to get truly silky. Add ice water 1 tablespoon at a time if it’s too thick. Taste and adjust the salt and lemon.

    2. Refrigerate at least 1 hour so the flavors settle.

    3. Spread the hummus in a wide shallow bowl, swooping with the back of a spoon to create grooves.

    4. Drizzle generously with olive oil, sprinkle the Everything Blend across the top, and scatter fresh herbs.

    5. Serve with crudité and warm pita wedges.
