Discover the Authentic Taste of Lebanese Hummus
Hummus has become a beloved staple around the world, finding its way into grocery stores, restaurants, and family kitchens everywhere. But do you know what makes authentic Lebanese hummus truly special? At Sabor de Líbano, we take pride in offering the freshest, most flavorful hummus made with premium ingredients and traditional recipes.

What Is Hummus?
Hummus is a smooth and creamy Middle Eastern dip or spread made from chickpeas, tahini (sesame paste), fresh lemon juice, garlic, and a hint of salt. Drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and traditionally served with warm pita bread, it’s more than just a snack—it's a delicious and nutritious part of Lebanese cuisine. Hummus is incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed as a dip, spread, or even as a flavorful addition to bowls, sandwiches, and salads.
The Secret to Our Authentic Hummus
Our hummus recipe at Sabor de Líbano is inspired by time-honored family traditions, blending the right balance of lemony brightness and garlicky depth. The key to its exceptional texture lies in meticulously preparing the chickpeas—soaking, boiling, and even peeling them to achieve that smooth, velvety finish. And our secret touch? A splash of ice-cold water during blending to give it that extra creamy consistency.
