The Best Hummus in the World!!
May 6th, 2007Everyone might have their own culinary experiences of eating their best Hummus.It might have been in Amman or Cairo or Casablanca or edgware road London or Tel Aviv,but for me it is in Abu Gosh.

Hummus is an international food product – a dip made of ground chickpeas, sesame tahini, lemon juice, and garlic – which crosses the boundaries of the Middle East.There’s a debate about it’s origins.What few people know is that hummus was also mentioned in the Bible up to 3000 years ago in the Book of Ruth מגילת רות.(Ruth was married to a judge of Israel, Boaz where they lived in Beit-Lechem meaning from Hebrew the “House of Bread.” Their child was Oved, grandfather of King David, first of the royal family of Israel—the House of David.)

This website for Humus addicts is pretty funny. This is the English version.
Hey, it’s not only women who can master humus. My Lebanese brother-in-law is incredibly hard to out-humus. No one can compete with his amazing skills at doing this (and another dish which we call 6a3miya.)

Abu Gosh hummus is being sold now in all the supermarkets over Israel… Can’t see why didn’t they do it before, as they are known as the best for ages now…
