Hi there, Ameera here!

Mom and I are on a roll, we are all about making huge salads for lunch every day and finding ways to make salad dressings fast and easy.  Using hummus as a base for oil-free salad dressing works really well.  We simply can’t get enough.

Using our The Best Hummus works perfectly for salad dressings because it is ultra creamy!  It whips up to create the creamiest dressings and is kind of a blank slate for just about every dressing you can conceive of.

It just works! You gotta give this one a try!

Tips for Success:

• Flavor Profile: The flavor of this dressing is a lightly zippy Italian dressing.  It is also lightly creamy from the hummus base.
• Taste Testing Salad Dressings: There is an art to arriving at the salad dressing that perfectly suits your tastes.  The best way to test salad dressings is to place a few leaves of lettuce (or other greens) in a tiny bowl, put a tiny bit of the salad dressing over top and mix really well, then taste test.  Some salad dressings taste amazing before you dress the salad, then once dressing the salad, they fall flat.  That is because the salad dressing has to cover all the salad ingredients and it flattens the flavor.  Additionally, some salad dressings taste really tangy or overly strong before dressing the salad, but once you dress the salad, it coats all the ingredients and tastes amazing.
• Hummus: We used our The Best Hummus in this recipe; however, feel free to use your favorite hummus.

Leftovers and Freezing:

Leftovers will generally keep for 7 days in the refrigerator.  Store in a covered container.

This dressing cannot be frozen.

Pantry Products Used:

• Sea Salt: Please adjust the sea salt based upon your family’s sea salt preferences and/or based upon dietary needs.

Kitchen Products Used:

• Whisk (or fork)

We certainly hope you give this deliciousness a try.
