Hummus Recipe

This hummus pairs boiled chickpeas with roasted sesame seeds and lime juice, which help offset chickpeas' slightly vata-increasing nature. It suits vata and pitta types, and kapha types should enjoy it in moderation.

Hummus Recipe

Ayurveda notes

While chickpeas can be slightly Vata-increasing when consumed in large quantities, the addition of sesame seeds, lime juice, and ghee can help balance it out, making hummus suitable for Vata and Pitta dosha individuals.

Those with a predominant Kapha dosha should consume hummus in moderation as chickpeas might increase Kapha when consumed excessively.
