International Hummus Day
Seeing as May 13 is International Hummus Day we have no choice but to celebrate the intoxicatingly delicious concoction of garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic – otherwise known as hummus. From whipping up a batch of your own custom-flavored red pepper hummus to spreading some store-bought dessert hummus on a cookie, there are endless ways to celebrate. We hear that there’s even some magical thing called a hummus festival – we’re not missing that! Hummus has been around for centuries and remains one of the most versatile and healthy staples in many diets. Today, we celebrate hummus for all that provides our diet and culture, as well as how we can all agree – it’s nature’s perfect food.
History of International Hummus Day
The origin of hummus is cloudy and hotly contested. Though we know it originated in the Middle East, many regions around the Eastern crescent of the Mediterranean claim to be the one true originator of the delectable spread. The first real mention of hummus in a cookbook was found in 13th century Cairo, where it appears as merely a cold chickpea puree, and notably lacks lemon juice and garlic – including instead pickled lemons with oil, herbs, and spices. It still sounds pretty good to us.
Hummus remained a huge staple in the diet of many living in the Middle East, where chickpeas flourish. In fact, the word “hummus” is rooted in the Arabic word for “chickpea”! Though there is some debate over whether or not the Greeks also invented hummus, most believe that it spread between Greek and Middle Eastern traders, along with popular delicacies like baklava and stuffed grape leaves. It’s known for this reason as one of the greatest crossover foods.
It’s also the national dish for many countries in the Middle East. It’s a cultural phenomenon as much as a culinary one, and nations stick up for their claim to hummus. For example, in 2008 Lebanon tried to sue Israel for “stealing” hummus! After that, the two strove to set the record for the largest plate of hummus. For all its long-lasting popularity in the Middle East and Southern Europe, it may surprise you to learn that the first British grocery store to stock hummus only did so in 1980. Unsurprisingly, however, it quickly became a great hit in the UK, largely for its health benefits.
Hummus definitely had a fashionably late arrival to the U.S. While 20 years ago, most Americans probably couldn’t even pronounce the name of the dish, and annual sales barely topped $5 million, today it is found in most grocery stores and considered a staple in many American households. While in the Middle East, hummus is increasingly considered a somewhat routine and middle-class meal, Americans are falling for the brownish spread – hard. It’s estimated that more than a quarter of U.S. households have hummus in the fridge right this second.
The first International Hummus Day was in 2012 and our taste buds have been celebrating ever since.

International Hummus Day Activities
Make your own hummus!
Try out a new hummus flavor
Attend a hummus festival
The key to being a forever favorite seems to be simplicity - hummus is based on just chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic. There are many fabulous hummus recipes online, but as long as you have a food processor and the key four ingredients, you’ll be successful in making the staple! Once you’ve got that down, try adding some flavors for your own custom hummus.
What do roasted red peppers, jalapeno, avocado, black olives, and chocolate have in common? They’re all fantastic hummus flavors! If your store doesn’t carry the flavor that you’re craving, pick up some plain hummus anyway and spice it up to your heart’s desire - the possibilities are endless!
You heard us right - hummus festivals are real! Check out the hashtag #hummusday or the account @hummusday on Instagram to see what events are happening near you. You can also find Hummus Day on Facebook or check out the various events on their website. Spoiler - they’re on every continent, so there’s a good chance you’ll find something you can attend!
5 Surprising Facts About Hummus
Happy heart, healthy heart
The same in every country
It’s an aphrodisiac
One lean cuppa
The first food
Hummus, which contains Omega-3 fatty acids, is known to maintain both heart health and a good mood!
Though the spread has gone global and the recipe has been tweaked slightly, the four key ingredients always persist: chickpeas, sesame paste, lemon juice, and garlic.
Made from protein- and vitamin-rich chickpeas (the “Queen of Aphrodisiacs,” as they are sometimes called), hummus has been known to aid in sexual functions and boost physical energy.
In just one cup of chickpeas, the basic ingredient of hummus, there are 200 calories and only one gram of fat.
In some folklore, hummus is touted as one of the oldest-ever prepared foods.
Why We Love International Hummus Day
Hummus unites people
It’s chock-full of vitamins
The possibilities are endless
Though many different regions around the world lay claim to the development of hummus, at least we can all agree that this versatile and healthy spread is nature’s perfect food. It’s been adopted across the globe with shockingly minimal changes to either the recipe or the name - we clearly all love it for exactly what it is.
Hummus is basically… a multivitamin. It’s bursting with fiber, protein, potassium, B6, folate, and Vitamin C. Not to mention, it can lower your cholesterol, nip hunger, and excess snacking in the bud, and potentially even contribute to a lower risk of some cancers!
What doesn’t hummus go on? Besides being a great chip and vegetable dip alternative to fattier dips like ranch, hummus can be used on sandwiches, salads, and so much more. These days, it can be endlessly favored as well, from spicy to savory to even dessert. The jury is out on that one for us but at least it’s healthier than ice cream.

I learned how to make nourishing salad bowls when I was experimenting with raw food in the summer of 2020. The effect that the electricity imbedded in the food had on my body, mind and soul was astonishing. I could literally feel my energy body rising in frequency, which affected my mood, feelings, and thought processes in a positive way. As I implemented more bowls into my lifestyle and started eating high raw on certain days regularly, the blemishes and dark spots on my skin started to fade and got replaced with a beautiful glow. My hair, which is curly, reached a growing plateau in my early 20’s and never grew beyond just over my breasts. Now, within a matter of weeks, in combination with daily sunlight exposure, it started growing quite rapidly and almost reached my belly button. Regulated and balanced emotional states were new for me, and having the ability to think sharply, being focused for long periods of time and being in a continual happy mood could be linked to the high raw food I was consuming. INGREDIENTS Romaine lettuce, red onion, bell pepper, cucumber, tomato, spring onion, garbanzo beans, avocado, cayenne pepper, dried seaweed and a cilantro/irish moss dressing (at USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYfopiDPbyP/?utm_medium=tumblr

The Philippines will never fail to amaze you. The stunning sights above and under the sea, the culture, the hospitality, the food, and of course, the friendly people willing to welcome visitors wherever and whenever. Spending a night or two on the island-blessed country is not enough when you want to savour all the Philippines has to offer.
The slogan "It's More Fun in the Philippines" brings an important part to convince people how amazing it would be to visit in our country. Because of this, we witnessed the continuous growth of foreign visits to the Philippines over these years, with an extraordinary part being those from western nations.
Here are the key concepts why It's More Fun in the Philippines:
Promotes Philippine Festivals
various festivals have distinct ways of celebration. Tourists can witness those colorful and lively festivals in our country .
The Ati-Atihan Festival is a Philippine festival held annually in January in honor of the Santo Niño in several towns of the province of Aklan, Panay Island. The biggest celebration is held during the third Sunday of January in the town of Kalibo, the province’s capital.
Panagbenga Festival is a month-long annual flower occasion occurring in Baguio City. The term is of Kankanaey origin, meaning "season of blooming". The festival, held in February, was created as a tribute to the city's flowers and as a way to rise up from the devastation of the 1990 Luzon earthquake.
The Sinulog-Santo Niño Festival is an annual cultural and religious festival held on the third Sunday of January in Cebu City, and is the centre of the Santo Niño Catholic celebrations in the Philippines.
The Dinagyang Festival is a religious and cultural festival in Iloilo City, Philippines held on the 4th Sunday of January, or right after the Sinulog in Cebu and the Ati-Atihan Festival in Kalibo, Aklan.
Promotes the Filipino Spirit
each country has different characteristics that give impressions to every tourist. Filipinos are friendly, caring, and are always happy.
Promotes our Best Tourist Destinations
Philippines is the home of world-famous beaches. Diving lovers, marine enthusiasts, and anyone who cherishes nature, Philippines is their best travel destination.
Boracay is a small island in the central Philippines. It's known for its resorts and beaches. Along the west coast, White Beach is backed by palm trees, bars and restaurants. On the east coast, strong winds make Bulabog Beach a hub for water sports. Nearby, the observation deck on Mount Luho offers panoramic views over the island. Offshore, coral reefs and shipwrecks are home to diverse marine life.
Palawan, officially the Province of Palawan, is an archipelagic province of the Philippines that is located in the region of Mimaropa. It is the largest province in the country in terms of total area of jurisdiction
Philippine cuisine, though not quite well-known in other parts of the world, mostly consists of tasty and colorful fare made with fish, meat, and vegetables. However, there are a number of dishes whose ingredients are unexpected, or even downright bizarre. One way to amp up your next trip's adventure factor is to try things that are unfamiliar to you, including new foods. Dare yourself to seek out and taste some of the curious fare listed below:
1. Chicken adobo: the famous Filipino dish
Chicken adobo is the most famous and popular of all Filipino foods, known and loved by everyone. It's also one of the best examples of how the country is such a rich melting pot of different historical influences. At its true essence, adobo is a protein (usually chicken, pork or fish) that is braised in vinegar then mixed with other herbs/spices.
Also bear in mind, an authentic adobo is cooked in a heavy bottomed clay pot. This is the like the heart and soul of any Filipino's momma's kitchen! Although when we tried to make an authentic adobo in our Airbnb in Manila, we used a wok instead. The result was tasty, but our friends swear to us that the best way is to use a clay pot for the most authentic flavour!
2. Balut: the Filipino Kinder surprise!
Balut is a developing duck embryo boiled and eaten as a snack in the shell, often served with a splash of vinegar. This is definitely one of the most famous foods to try in the Philippines and certainly the strangest we've ever tried!
Locals swear by it and will tell you what a nourishing and wholesome snack it is. It's just 188 calories for each balut and it contains lots of niacin, riboflavin, thiamine, protein, calcium, iron and phosphorus.
3. Kare Kare: oxtail stew
Kare kare is a stew with oxtail, ox tripes, lots of vegetables, which is flavoured with ground roasted peanuts (or peanut butter), onions and garlic. It's served with shrimp paste ( called “bagoong”), calamansi juice (Filipino lime) and sometimes spiced with chilli.
Kare Kare is famous throughout the whole country. The alleged origin of its name is from the word “curry” – a nod to the influence of the Philippines' Indian community in the Cainta area of Metro Manila. It is thought to have originated from the Indian soldiers who settled in the Philippines during the British invasion.
4. Kinilaw: raw fish salad
Kinilaw is similar to the famous Peruvian dish called ceviche. The word “kinilaw” or “kilaw” means ‘eaten fresh’ in Tagalog. It is a raw fish salad served in an acidic juice, usually kalamansi (Filipino lime) and vinegar. In the Philippines, vinegar is nicknamed “liquid fire” because it cooks the food enough to be digested. More interestingly, vinegar in the Philippines is produced by alcoholic fermentation of coconut water, which is what gives it a sour-sweet flavour.
Just like with ceviche, the acid from the lime and the vinegar “cooks” the meat. Other ingredients usually in a kinilaw include garlic, ginger, onion, pepper and chilli.
5. Sinigang: sour meat stew
Sinigang is another popular Filipino stew. It is meat-based and more sour and savoury in flavour than a kare kare – usually using tamarind (sampalok) as the souring agent. Alternative souring agents include guava, tomatoes or kalamansi.
A traditional sinigang is served as a stew or soup, always served with lots of vegetables like okra, water spinach, (kang kong), daikon (labanos), onions and aubergine (eggplants). Pork (sinigang baboy) is the most common meat for sinigang, but chicken (sinigang na manok), beef (sinigang na baka) and fish (sinigang na bangus) can also be used.
6. Lechon: roasted suckling pig
Lechon is a “suckling pig” in Hispanic traditions. It is literally an entire young pig that has been fed on just its mother's milk (the word for milk in Spanish is leche), which is roasted over charcoal for many hours. Lechon is also considered the national dish of the Philippines. The city of Cebu is considered one of the most famous places in the country for lechon.
Lechon is also very popular across Spain and large parts of Latin America, usually reserved for special occasions. It's one of the many influences in the Philippines from its 333 years as a Spanish colony – from 1565 to 1898.
The leftovers of the lechon are stewed with vinegar and spices and become a delicious dish called paksiw na lechon. Paksiw literally means: to cook and simmer with vinegar.
7. Tapsilog: the King of the Filipino breakfast
Taspsilog is a popular breakfast dish in the Philippines. The name itself refers to the contents comprising the meal: cured beef (“tapa”), fried rice (“sinangag”) and a fried egg (“itlog”).
The beef in a well made traditional Filipino tapsilog is seasoned with a sauce that is a mix of soy sauce, calamansi juice, brown sugar, minced garlic and black pepper. The rice is fried with lots of garlic to give it a strong (and tasty!) aroma. Finally, the egg is usually served sunny side up. To complement a traditional tapsilog, vinegar or pickled papaya (atchara) is sometimes served.
Variants of tapsilog include “adosilog” (adobo with fried rice and fried egg), “litsilog” (lechon with fried rice and egg) and the most unique of all – “Stefansilog” (a Stefan with fried rice and egg)…ok this is just us being silly
8. Halo halo: the best Filipino dessert
This is the ultimate and most famous of all Filipino desserts! Halo Halo means ‘mixed together’ in Tagalog. It is served in a tall glass containing ice shavings, evaporated milk and various small chunks of yummy goodies all mixed in together.
What are the yummy goodies I hear you cry?
Well this includes a mix of boiled kidney beans, chickpeas (“garbanzo”), sugar palm fruit (“kaong”), jackfruit, tapioca, sweet potato, sweet beans, coconut gel, ice cream, guava paste, purple yam and more! There is no one exact formula or recipe, as long as you have a fabulous mix of all of these thrown in with the shaved ice and evaporated milk.
The end result is a tropical, colourful and very tasty mess, perfect for the beach. Every time we went to one of the many beaches in the Philippines, there'd always be a vendor with a huge queue selling halo halos!
9. Buko pie: the divine Filipino coconut pie
I love coconuts a lot – it's my favourite fruit. So a dessert made out of coconuts? My daily staple in the Philippines!
Buko pie is a baked coconut custard pie, the speciality of Los Baños on Luzon island. It has condensed milk added to sweeten it. What I also love is that the coconut meat is also used in the cake. Other variations to the many buko pies I've consumed include the addition of vanilla, pandan and almond.
Buko pie is a recent discovery, entirely by accident by the Pahud sisters from Los Baños, Laguna. One of the sisters returned to her family in the Philippines after working as a maid in the USA where she learned to make apple pies. The sisters tried to recreate the American apple pie, but in the absence of apples in the Philippines, they used another fruit they had in abundance – bukos! The idea took off and became one of the most popular desserts in the Philippines.
Fellow coconut lovers listen up – buko is the word for coconut in Tagalog. Unlike the traditional coconuts which are smaller, slightly hairy and brown in colour, Filipino bukos are much larger, smoother and green. They have a lot more juice inside which makes them so much more satisfying, especially when you want to refresh your body and cool down in the hot, humid Filipino weather. It's also a fantastic source of potassium, sodium, magnesium and iron, which is why the coconut tree is nicknamed the ‘Tree of Life’ in the Phillippines.
10. Arroz Caldo, the Filipino porridge
Arroz caldo is the Filipino porridge equivalent, a popular breakfast dish and comfort food that all our Filipino friends swear by.
It starts out as a sort of chicken soup with rice cooked in water with chicken stock. However, unlike chicken soup, the mixture is cooked for longer until it turns into a thick porridge – this is the arroz caldo! It is then infused with ginger and garnished with toasted garlic, scallions, and black pepper. It is usually served with calamansi or fish sauce as condiments, as well as a hard-boiled egg.
Although arroz caldo means “rice broth” in Spanish, it was in fact based on the congee introduced to the Philippines by Chinese immigrants many centuries ago.
A traditional arroz caldo uses glutinous rice and is slightly yellow in colour. This comes from the addition of kasubha (safflower) or saffron. In the absence of safflower or saffron, turmeric can be used instead.
Other variations of arroz caldo include a French inspired “arroz palaka” where instead of chicken, frogs' legs are used instead (palaka means “frog” in Tagalog)! Another interesting one we discovered was a vegan variant which uses mushrooms or tofu in place of meat.
Philippines is wonderful country, different kind of people who are generous, very friendly and the hospitable one and especially open to accept, embrace and promote our own culture. As we explore the beauty, the paradise and the hidden treasure from luzon, visayas and mindanao, we will see the real beauty of the Philippines. Different places with different stories, different tribes with different cultures, different personalities. We grew up in this world not knowing there are still some hidden places waiting to discover. I am inviting you to explore and enjoy the true beauty of the Philippines. So what are you waiting for? Halina't magsaya at mag pakasasa mga larawang dika magsasawa, Philippines road to forever beauty.

15 QUESTIONS, 15 MUTUALS
thank you to the lovely @mythalsfavour for the tag!! 😘
Are you named after someone?:
Yes, I am named after my mom’s two sister. Her twin sister, Molly, and her older sister, Jane. She doesn’t get along with either of them anymore, especially her sister, Molly, which puts me in the business of often saying that I am named after my mom’s two sister whom she hates.
When was the last time you cried?:
A week ago, maybe? I distinctly remember weeping as I watched the music video for Happier for the fifth time because I was convinced I wouldn’t cry - even though I’d cried the first four times. Sometimes I ain’t bright!
Do you have kids?:
No, and thank god.
Do you use sarcasm a lot?:
Who? Me? Never! I’ve never even heard of a shark-chasm
What’s the first thing you notice about people?:
Warmth and positivity. If I greet them with a smile, do they give the same energy back. How do they treat other people.
What’s your eye color?:
[muffled sound of ‘Brown-Eyed Girl’ playing in the distance]
Scary movies or happy endings?:
Happy endings, please and thanks. However, I have been getting more into scary movies recently thanks to the youtube channel, Dead Meat, run by one of my favorites youtubers who got his start on, Practical Folks. Gotta plug the fam! But, yes...Happy Endings or I’ll Cry.
Any special talents?:
I am a self-proclaimed, Writer Person! Sometimes I word good and sentence make.
Where were you born?:
Good ol’ Chicagoland in ye olde USA
What are your hobbies?:
Thinking about writing, sometimes actually writing, playing the same video games over and over again, taking long walks by myself, bike rides, and I’m one of those persistent Pokemon Goers.
Do you have any pets?:
Personally? No. Unfortunately, my dear cat, Sam, passed away back in February. My sister, however, has a cat named Garbanzo, whom we all call ‘Bean’, that is essentially the family cat. He is orange and dumb and we love him. We also have a family dog, Ingird, a lab and hound mix, but she’s a really my mom’s dog more than anything.
How tall are you?:
Something terribly average
What sports do you play/have played?:
I played soccer when I was younger and t-ball when I was even younger. I love to be active, but neither my parents nor I kept me persistent in sports.
Favorite subject at school?:
I gotta give it to English. It was definitely the subject I was most capable in, and essays - though tedious - were an art I mastered pretty quickly after jumping face first into advanced English my freshman year of high school after a previous school career of intermediate-only. I certainly never made that mistake again, but damn if I didn’t learn a few things along the way!
But, in general, I was a good student overall, and I can’t say there was any class I didn’t like.
Dream job?:
Still clinging to my dreams of being a psychometrician, but I’m willing to see where life takes me.
I’m not sure I have 15 people to tag, but here’s a bunch: @jabletown, @acecasinova, @mamzellecombeferre, @gleefully-macabre, @thatoboekid, and whoever wants to give it a go!

Everything You Need to Know About Chickpeas
The term Chickpeas is derived from the French word ‘chiche’ and Latin word ‘cicer’. During 1500 the chickpeas were called Chiche. The botanical name of Chickpeas is ‘Cicer arietinum’. As we've heard so many times about the garbanzo beans and chickpeas. As both of them look the like same, they also taste similar, and for so many years people have to wonder that are garbanzo beans chickpeas? The only simple reason why they're called out by different names is that "chickpeas" which is referred to as the English name, while "garbanzo" is the Spanish name for the same and they both are the same food.
In Chickpeas, there are only two types
Kabuli chickpeas
Desi chickpeas
Chickpeas are one of the most vital ingredients in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisines. It is a key ingredient in hummus, Chana dal, and can be grounded into flour and made into falafel. Also, Chickpeas flour is used in the baking of pasta and adding to smoothies.
Chickpeas also contain several minerals and vitamins like vitamin B which reduces the risk of lung and breast cancer. Chickpeas contain calcium, iron, manganese, zinc, and phosphate. Vitamin K in chickpeas all help in maintaining bone strength and bone structure in human beings. Chickpeas help to prevent the problems related to constipation due to the presence of high fibers and proteins. As per studies chickpeas in the diet lowers the bad cholesterol in the blood.
Health benefits of chickpeas:
1. Rich in Plant-Based Protein
Chickpeas are an excellent source of plant-based protein, making them an appropriate food choice for those that don't eat animal products. The standard of the protein in chickpeas is best than that of other sorts of legumes. That's because chickpeas contain most of the essential amino acids, apart from methionine.
2. Support blood glucose Control:

3. May assist you in Manage Your Weight:

Soluble fiber may help increase the number of healthy bacteria in your gut and stop the overgrowth of unhealthy bacteria. This will cause a reduced risk of some digestive conditions, like irritable bowel syndrome and carcinoma.

International Hummus Day
Seeing as May 13 is International Hummus Day we have no choice but to celebrate the intoxicatingly delicious concoction of garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic – otherwise known as hummus. From whipping up a batch of your own custom-flavored red pepper hummus to spreading some store-bought dessert hummus on a cookie, there are endless ways to celebrate. We hear that there’s even some magical thing called a hummus festival – we’re not missing that! Hummus has been around for centuries and remains one of the most versatile and healthy staples in many diets. Today, we celebrate hummus for all that provides our diet and culture, as well as how we can all agree – it’s nature’s perfect food.
History of International Hummus Day
The origin of hummus is cloudy and hotly contested. Though we know it originated in the Middle East, many regions around the Eastern crescent of the Mediterranean claim to be the one true originator of the delectable spread. The first real mention of hummus in a cookbook was found in 13th century Cairo, where it appears as merely a cold chickpea puree, and notably lacks lemon juice and garlic – including instead pickled lemons with oil, herbs, and spices. It still sounds pretty good to us.
Hummus remained a huge staple in the diet of many living in the Middle East, where chickpeas flourish. In fact, the word “hummus” is rooted in the Arabic word for “chickpea”! Though there is some debate over whether or not the Greeks also invented hummus, most believe that it spread between Greek and Middle Eastern traders, along with popular delicacies like baklava and stuffed grape leaves. It’s known for this reason as one of the greatest crossover foods.
It’s also the national dish for many countries in the Middle East. It’s a cultural phenomenon as much as a culinary one, and nations stick up for their claim to hummus. For example, in 2008 Lebanon tried to sue Israel for “stealing” hummus! After that, the two strove to set the record for the largest plate of hummus. For all its long-lasting popularity in the Middle East and Southern Europe, it may surprise you to learn that the first British grocery store to stock hummus only did so in 1980. Unsurprisingly, however, it quickly became a great hit in the UK, largely for its health benefits.
Hummus definitely had a fashionably late arrival to the U.S. While 20 years ago, most Americans probably couldn’t even pronounce the name of the dish, and annual sales barely topped $5 million, today it is found in most grocery stores and considered a staple in many American households. While in the Middle East, hummus is increasingly considered a somewhat routine and middle-class meal, Americans are falling for the brownish spread – hard. It’s estimated that more than a quarter of U.S. households have hummus in the fridge right this second.
The first International Hummus Day was in 2012 and our taste buds have been celebrating ever since.
International Hummus Day timeline
13th Century Early Hummus
In Cairo, the earliest known hummus-like dish is recorded in cookbooks — it is a cold puree of chickpeas but doesn't include any lemon or garlic yet.
2008 Hummus Smackdown
Lebanon and Israel begin to battle for the recognition of being hummus’ country of origin.
May 2010 World’s Largest Hummus
Hummus breaks world records when a single dish of hummus weighs in at 23,000 pounds!
2012 Hummus is Recognized
International Hummus Day begins with entrepreneur Ben Lang’s goal to unite the world, and particularly the Middle East, through beloved food.
2016 Spreading the Wealth
According to the USA Dry Pea and Lentil Council (we didn’t know this existed, either), the hummus industry brought in $725 million in 2016 - and that number is expected to increase.
International Hummus Day FAQs
When is International Hummus Day celebrated?
International Hummus Day is celebrated on May 13th.
Are there any deals for International Hummus Day?
Absolutely! In addition to deals from restaurants like Naf Naf Grill and Cava, there are hummus events and celebrations, including Hummus Week in Washington, DC.
Where is International Hummus Day observed?
International Hummus Day is observed globally.
International Hummus Day Activities
Make your own hummus!
Try out a new hummus flavor
Attend a hummus festival
The key to being a forever favorite seems to be simplicity - hummus is based on just chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic. There are many fabulous hummus recipes online, but as long as you have a food processor and the key four ingredients, you’ll be successful in making the staple! Once you’ve got that down, try adding some flavors for your own custom hummus.
What do roasted red peppers, jalapeno, avocado, black olives, and chocolate have in common? They’re all fantastic hummus flavors! If your store doesn’t carry the flavor that you’re craving, pick up some plain hummus anyway and spice it up to your heart’s desire - the possibilities are endless!
You heard us right - hummus festivals are real! Check out the hashtag #hummusday or the account @hummusday on Instagram to see what events are happening near you. You can also find Hummus Day on Facebook or check out the various events on their website. Spoiler - they’re on every continent, so there’s a good chance you’ll find something you can attend!
5 Surprising Facts About Hummus
Happy heart, healthy heart
The same in every country
It’s an aphrodisiac
One lean cuppa
The first food
Hummus, which contains Omega-3 fatty acids, is known to maintain both heart health and a good mood!
Though the spread has gone global and the recipe has been tweaked slightly, the four key ingredients always persist: chickpeas, sesame paste, lemon juice, and garlic.
Made from protein- and vitamin-rich chickpeas (the “Queen of Aphrodisiacs,” as they are sometimes called), hummus has been known to aid in sexual functions and boost physical energy.
In just one cup of chickpeas, the basic ingredient of hummus, there are 200 calories and only one gram of fat.
In some folklore, hummus is touted as one of the oldest-ever prepared foods.
Why We Love International Hummus Day
Hummus unites people
It’s chock-full of vitamins
The possibilities are endless
Though many different regions around the world lay claim to the development of hummus, at least we can all agree that this versatile and healthy spread is nature’s perfect food. It’s been adopted across the globe with shockingly minimal changes to either the recipe or the name - we clearly all love it for exactly what it is.
Hummus is basically… a multivitamin. It’s bursting with fiber, protein, potassium, B6, folate, and Vitamin C. Not to mention, it can lower your cholesterol, nip hunger, and excess snacking in the bud, and potentially even contribute to a lower risk of some cancers!
What doesn’t hummus go on? Besides being a great chip and vegetable dip alternative to fattier dips like ranch, hummus can be used on sandwiches, salads, and so much more. These days, it can be endlessly favored as well, from spicy to savory to even dessert. The jury is out on that one for us but at least it’s healthier than ice cream.

The Ultimate Guide To Gluten-Free Flour
Is that innocent-looking piece of toast with your breakfast actually doing your body harm? If you’ve discovered that gluten is wreaking havoc on your insides and it’s time to cut it, you may be feeling overwhelmed by what you can eat, what you can’t, and the best alternatives.
At Beyond The Equator, we aim to provide solutions to allergies and intolerances so you can still enjoy all your favorite foods without compromise. Our gluten-free Sunflower Seed Flower is just one part of this mission.
What Is Gluten?
Gluten is a naturally occurring protein that acts as a kind of glue that holds food together. This protein is mostly found in grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. As a result, gluten is present in many of our day-to-day food choices. Pasta, bread, cereal, pizza bases, muffins, cakes, and even beer and some medications all contain gluten in them as they are made from these grains.
Why Is Gluten An Issue For Some People?
Gluten is often labeled as being ‘bad’ for you, which is not entirely true. While it doesn’t add any valuable nutrition to your diet, for most people, it is completely harmless to consume.
However, should you have celiac disease or a gluten-sensitive skin disorder known as dermatitis herpetiformis, a gluten-free diet is recommended. While not expressly necessary it has been shown that a gluten-free diet may be helpful for some people with other conditions such as:
Irritable bowel syndrome
A neurological disorder, known as gluten ataxia
Individuals with type 1 diabetes
HIV-associated enteropathy (intestinal disease)
When gluten is consumed by someone with any of the above conditions it can trigger irritation to the small intestine, leading to cramps, diarrhea, and bloating. It can also lead to inflammation in the skin with associated rashes.
Celiac Disease And Gluten
In the case of celiac disease, gluten triggers an immune response that permanently damages the lining of the small intestine. This leads to the body being unable to adequately absorb nutrients from food and therefore creating deficiencies in essential vitamins and minerals.
According to a study carried out by The University Of Chicago:
“Celiac disease affects 1% of healthy, average Americans. That means at least 3 million people in our country are living with celiac disease—97% of them are undiagnosed.”
This equates to around one in every 133 people having celiac disease in the USA alone. When improperly managed, the associated deficiencies can cause long-term issues such as osteoporosis, infertility, nerve damage, and seizures.
Benefits Of A Gluten-Free Diet
Excluding gluten from your diet can have great health benefits, even if you do not have any gluten sensitivities or intolerances. While further studies need to be done into the exclusion of gluten, many people report:
Improved energy levels
Less bloating after meals
Less joint inflammation
Fewer headaches
Improved mood
Better skin and hair
Fewer incidences of intestinal distress
Types Of Gluten-Free Flour
If you need or want to go gluten-free, stocking your pantry with gluten-free options can be confusing. Gone are the days of just a few gluten-free options at your local health food store, there are now hundreds of gluten-free options to choose from.
Gluten-free flour and gluten-free flour blends are no exception, so rather than have you stuck in the aisles of your grocery store poring over labels, we’ve rounded up and compared some for you. Some gluten-free flours come with xanthan gum added to assist in the binding of your cooking. If this is something you prefer to avoid, please check the labels carefully.
1. Almond Flour
Made from milled almonds, almond flour/meal is a slightly sweet and nutty wheat-free flour alternative. Favored for baking, almond flour creates dense, heavier cakes and bread. It is not suitable as a gluten-free 1 to 1 flour substitute in most recipes. Almond flour is not suitable for anyone with a tree nut allergy.
2. Bean Flours
Bean flours are Made by grinding chickpeas (garbanzo beans), soybeans, fava beans, black beans, or green peas. Bean flour is popular as a binding agent, in pasta making or crumbing food for frying. They tend to lend a noticeable ‘bean’ taste to food and therefore are best suited to savory cooking.
Should you also be intolerant to legumes, this flour will not be a suitable alternative for you.
3. Coconut Flour
Made from defatted coconut flesh, coconut flour is a light, fine powder high in fiber with a delicate coconut flavor. It is not recommended as a gluten-free 1 to 1 flour substitute, in baking too much coconut flour tends to lead to dry, hardened results.
4. Rice Flour
Made by grinding rice grains into a fine powder, rice flour is high in fiber and virtually tasteless - it also contains zero sugar. However, like coconut flour, too much can result in dry, hard baking. It is versatile and can be used for baking loaves of bread, cakes, and biscuits as well as making noodles or crumbing food for frying. It does tend to be used more as a thickener or binding agent than a gluten-free 1 to 1 flour substitute.
5. Oat Flour
Oat flour is a lightly sweet flour ideal for baking bread, cookies, and pancakes. Unfortunately, not all celiac or gluten intolerant individuals can consume oat flour. Some oat flours are not certified gluten-free and most physicians will still caution someone with celiac to limit their consumption of this flour.
