Hummus salad dressing
This delicious hummus dressing is the best way to use up leftover hummus. It's great for kale salad, grain bowls, or any dish needing a creamy, tangy flavour boost.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons hummus store-bought or homemade hummus
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or water for an oil-free version
- 1 tablespoons lemon juice more to taste
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt more to taste
- pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and whisk until smooth and creamy. Or add everything to a mason jar and shake vigorously.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning. Add more lemon juice if you want a more acidic dressing, and more salt to boost the savoury flavours
Notes
- Refrigerate in a sealed container for up to one week.
- See the ingredients section for more detail on ingredients and substitutes.
