Hummus is a smooth, rich dip made from boiled chickpeas, tahini (sesame paste), lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil, blended into a creamy texture and often garnished with paprika, parsley, and whole chickpeas. In Palestinian cuisine, hummus is more than a dip—it’s a symbol of identity and hospitality, traditionally eaten with warm pita bread as part of breakfast, mezze, or family feasts. Popular across the Levant, the Palestinian version is known for its balanced acidity and extra drizzle of olive oil.

Common variations include Hummus bi lahmeh (with spiced meat), Hummus with pine nuts, or Musabaha (chunkier, warm chickpeas).
