Harissa Hummus Recipe

February 27, 2023

Check out Sous Chef Ashley Helms’ recipe for Harissa Hummus! The Harissa Hummus will be featured on the Sumac Roasted Half Chicken Entree on our March 2023 menu.

This hummus can be used as an appetizer with veggies and pita bread. It can also be paired with any Mediterranean or North African dish. It plays nice with chicken, shrimp, steak, & lamb.
