Make the best oil-free hummus! Watch Dreena’s video for tips on making delicious, creamy hummus with prep and storage tips.

Making oil-free hummus is darn easy.
But, there are a few tricks that make it creamy, extra tasty, and also save you time with hummus prep.
The past couple of weeks I’ve felt inspired to just jump on facebook and do live videos of my food prep.
It’s kind of liberating not to fuss about setting up the lighting, proper video, have all ingredients prepped and ready (mise en place), and my kitchen in an orderly manner!
Truly, these last six months my kitchen is rarely in an orderly manner.
Or any area of my house for that matter. 🙄 It’s been a long spring break.

Back to hummus-making! You can find a number of hummus recipes in my books and right here. Everything from Artichoke White Bean Hummus to Spiced Sweet Potato Hummus to Green Chickpea Hummus. There’s even a full hummus chapter in ed&bv.
After all, #hummusisafoodgroup so we need flavor options!
But, what I wanted to show you in this video is how to prep hummus without a recipe. Rather, to just get working with your ingredients, tasting and tweaking as you go.

This particular version is similar to my Hummus 101 recipe, so it has traditional ingredients in an oil-free hummus.
I’ll be doing more live videos like these on facebook so follow me there if you haven’t already.
And, share your favorite take on hummus in the comments.
Hope you find the video useful. Enjoy! x Dreena

I discovered your Plant-Powered Families book. My family loves every recipe I have made from there! You really have a keen sense of taste. Thank you for taking the time to create and share your amazing recipes!

Where is the recipe so we can print it out ?
Dreena says
Hi Nina, it in the link when I mention it’s based on the Hummus 101 recipe from my Plant-Powered Families book. There’s a back to school post with that recipe in it.

I love your book “Plant-Powered Families”. I make the Red Lentil Hummus approximately twice a month. Watching your video today, I learned that we can freeze hummus! I also I will definitely investigate Sumac Spice.
I want you to know that I make your “Chickpea Salad” weekly. I make a double batch which gets me through the work week. I add raisins for fun. Thank you, Dreena!
Dreena says
Hi Susan and thanks for the feedback. So happy you love the red lentil hummus recipe. I did a video of the chickpea salad the other day and will post that here too. Thanks for the lovely note!
