How to Measure Hummus Correctly
Hummus should be measured by spooning it into the measuring cup and levelling it off. For accuracy, use a kitchen scale. Hummus's thick consistency means it can be difficult to measure precisely by volume.
Understanding Hummus Measurements
Hummus is a thick dip made from chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic. One cup of hummus weighs approximately 250 grams. Its consistency can vary depending on the recipe, but it's generally thick and spreadable.
Common Uses in Baking & Cooking
Hummus is used as a dip, spread, and in sandwiches. It's a staple in Middle Eastern cuisine and adds protein and flavour to dishes. It's also used as a base for other dips and spreads.
Storage and Handling Tips
Store hummus in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Homemade hummus should be used within 5-7 days, while store-bought hummus can last for several weeks. If it develops an off smell or changes colour, discard it.
