Ingredients

Method
-
Prepare the Celery.
Start by washing the celery stalks thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt. Then, trim off the leafy tops and the base ends. Cut the celery stalks into sticks about 3 to 4 inches long, making them easy to hold and dip.
Tip: If you prefer a milder flavor, peel the strings from the celery by snapping the stalk and pulling the strings away. -
Measure the Hummus.
Using a tablespoon, scoop out 3 tablespoons (about 42 grams) of hummus. Place the hummus in a small serving bowl or directly on a plate next to the celery sticks.
Tip: If the hummus is too thick, stir in a teaspoon of water or olive oil to reach your desired consistency. -
Serve and Enjoy.
Arrange the celery sticks neatly around the hummus. This makes it easy to dip and enjoy. Serve immediately for the freshest taste and crunch.
Tip: For added flavor, sprinkle a pinch of paprika or drizzle a little olive oil over the hummus before serving.
Pro tips
- Use fresh, crisp celery for the best texture and flavor.
- Homemade hummus can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
