Best Hummus Mix Ever April 10, 2009 Robert E. Waugh (Groveport, OH USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Of all the brands of instant hummus mixes I have tried, I rate this the best. An authentic hummus taste. Not as good as homemade of course, but close. Ah, who am I kidding, better than the hummus I make.
Absolutely top notch! January 28, 2009 Florida Bum (Daytona Beach, FL) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you've ever tried to make good hummus, it's not the easiest thing to do - until now. I'm thankful others had tried this before me, because I wasn't too worried since the ratings were so high. And they were absolutely right! OK, it's a powder in a box. How good can it be, right? Unbelievably good, I tell you! The flavor is NOT bland - you can taste the lemon!
I followed the directions and used a wisk, and I have to agree with another review - a touch more water makes it a nicer consistency. I also have to agree that you need a big bowl. One package of this is listed as 17 servings which seems about right for a small party of 6 or 8 people.
But the nice thing is you can easily mix up just the amount you want. I found that 1 tablespoon of powder mix and a like amount of water makes just the right size for a snack or as a side for lunch. And you're going to want to do that, because otherwise you'll just keep eating it! There are only 50 calories in a serving - but multiply by 17, and... well, so long, diet!
Everybody eats it with pita; I like it with flour tortillas; try it with pretzel rods or (my favorite) Snack Aisle's Pretzel Crisps. Truthfully, I like it with almost everything!
Very good after doctoring November 17, 2008 slloyd (PA) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This product is a bit bland and dry using instructions on box. Instead, add 1 1/4 cups H2O, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and additional tablespoons of H2O (2 is my preferance) to get a good consistancy without getting runny.
Not bad hummus -- esp considering it comes from a box! February 11, 2008 Heather L. Nixon 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Wow. Very impressed. I love hummus, HATE making it, cause it takes so long. This... 30 seconds, and I had hummus ready! And it didn't taste too bad. Definitely a little bland which you could spice up on your own. Also pretty thick, so if you like it a little runnier, add more water or olive oil. Definitely a bargain. Store bought hummus is twice the price for half the amount!
Love the hummus October 24, 2007 Lu Wang (San Francisco, CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
These are real yummy. You can get real creative and put olive oil, spices or whatever you can think of to make the perfect hummus.
The only problem I had with it was if I don't stir rigorously, lumps form. It's also a bit salty, so watch how much you eat in one go.
I love these, btw, these go perfectly with the Dr. Krackers crackers, (also available on Amazon) for a great tasting healthy snack.
