Chickpea salad

Chickpea salad, sometimes called hummus salad (سلطة حمص), using the Arabic word for 'chickpea', is a salad in Arab cuisine. It consists of whole cooked chickpeas, lemon juice, garlic, tahini, salt, olive oil, and cumin.

Chickpea salad has been eaten in the Levant since at least the time of the Amorite kings, with Zimri-Lim being known in particular for lavish banquets at which the dish was one of the delicacies.

Variants may include coriander, sweet paprika, turmeric, pepper, chopped mint, chopped onions, or parsley.

Chickpea salad is eaten by vegans worldwide.
