Peanut butter can be made solely with blended peanuts. Hummus is rarely, if ever ime, made with only blended chickpeas and also requires some oil/tahini for even the basic texture.
I was under the impression that, by definition, blended chickpeas were only one ingredient in hummus.
I thought in order to qualify as hummus it had to have blended chickpeas, tahini ( which is just blended sesame seeds, IIRC), oil, and lemon juice.
Now that I think about it, tahini and peanut butter are fairly similar in texture and consistency.
I wonder what Hummus with peanut butter would taste like.
I also wonder what peanut butter with garlic, lemon and cumin would taste like.
Peanut butter with garlic and salt is absolutely awesome.
I was about to say this sounds similar to Thai peanut sauce
Ez thai peanut sauce recipe.
Red curry paste or Panang curry paste, saute in pan. Pour in your coconut milk, dump too much peanut butter in usually crunchy and add salt/sugar to taste.
10/10 ez n good
