Hummus with Cilantro

If you like chickpeas, you must try hummus. It is a popular oriental spread or side dish made from cooked chickpeas, olive oil, tahini (sesame paste), garlic, and lemon juice. Usually, finely chopped parsley is added, but this time we present a version with cilantro. Hummus is served with bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables cut into sticks.
