Traditionally consumed for breakfast, this Levantine dish is also enjoyed as a dip or an appetizer, and is also included in mezze, an assortment of small dishes typically served before a multicourse meal. Furthermore, it is a part of other Middle Eastern dishes like falafel and sabich. Hummus or hummus bi'tahina, at its basic, consists of chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, and often cumin that are ground and served with a drizzle of olive oil on top and a sprinkling of spices like paprika and/or herbs like parsley. A few whole chickpeas or pine nuts can also be added as decoration. Hummus ful, on the other hand, is almost identical to hummus bi'tahina, except that it is topped with a fava bean paste. The third version of hummus is hummus msabbaha. Here the chickpeas are left whole and mixed with tahini and hummus bi'tahina. No matter which version is served, it should be served warm, with pita bread on the side for scooping it up.
