Black Hummus

This hummus recipe is almost the same as a traditional Lebanese hummus, except the garbanzos and tahini are replaced with black beans and black tahini. The darkness has taken over. To be honest, I accidentally bought black tahini instead of Chinese black sesame paste when I was making ice cream. I didn’t want to waste it. So now I have black hummus; which turned out extremely good. The black tahini has a nuttier flavor than regular tahini. Sprinkling sumac over the top of the black hummus gives it a nice lemon aftertaste.
