"Middle Eastern style spread for Pita bread. This recipe is very tasty and easy to make. This is a very popular dish in this region. The base is usually Chickpeas and Tahini, but the flavor added to the base vary widely from one chef to the next.

Ingredients: ground cumin, garbanzo beans...

"This recipe is inspired by the many hummus recipes I have seen, but had added oil & were lacking the flavor I was seeking.

Also very good to spread on a sandwich and top it..."

"At one time, I made these often as a nice treat with a quiet cup of tea. Unlike the other koulourakia recipes posted here, this one is not a butter cookie, rather a nice combination of citrus and walnuts. Though these are traditionally served with a light dusting of powdered sugar, my guess is dipping the ends in chocolate would also work well. More..."
