Culinaria Three Olive Hummus
What it is
This is a creamy dip made from mashed chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, and a blend of three different types of olives. The olives add a distinct briny and savory flavor profile that sets it apart from plain hummus. It is ready to eat straight from the container. This product is typically found in the refrigerated section of a grocery store.
