black hummus

Spooky, sexy and inevitably chic, this all-black hummus from French blogger Eva Gaillot is the ultimate Halloween treat. Who needs candy when you have a gorgeous nutrient-dense condiment like this one to share?

The Paris-based vegan recipe developer and storyteller behind The French Coconut nailed a perfect balance of texture, flavor and X-factor with this simple black hummus. Serve some up at your next gathering with a side of veggie crudites, seed crackers or anything else your heart desires.

Pro tip: If you can’t find black tahini you can always make it yourself by blending 1 cup of black sesame seeds with 2 tablespoons of oil.
