Spicy Hummus
"I don't know how conventional this hummus recipe is, but it sure is delicious! If you're sick of bland, insipid, and totally uninspiring hummus, this should make you and your taste buds happy. It works as a vegetable dip, as a spread, or in sandwiches."

I needed another vegan recipe for a holiday party and gave this one a try since I had all the ingredients on hand. I couldn't have been happier with the results. We found it perfectly spiced- not too hot. Thank you bilious-pigeon. -
Irresistable- great on pita, with veggies; just plain yummy. I may slightly reduce the cayenne, as my mom found it a tad hot, I think. But I find it warming! Thanks for posting! -
I love Hummus and make it often. I never would have thought of adding fennel seed. Very original and delicious.

I'm a teenager whose obsessed with music and mildly interested in books, movies, yoga, and - of course - food! I spend most of my time practicing organ, piano, singing, conducting choirs, and reading but I've recently discovered that I also enjoy cooking. Most of my recipes are vegan, and slightly altered from ones I found in other cookbooks. Please leave a review or send me a message if you tried one of my recipes!
