Estimated reading time: 4 minutes

Cauliflower itself is a bit boring actually. No colour, the taste is not extremely pronounced and it is often eaten only cooked. Still, it is a nice vegetable to do something more with. For example, I made a whole roasted cauliflower from the oven before. I also wanted to make a hummus recipe with it. You can experiment a lot with flavors here. And so we did with this spicy roasted cauliflower hummus. I have a bottle of chili oil in the kitchen and the seeds are at the bottom. The closer we get to the end, the tougher it gets. Because I regularly forget to shake the bottle so that the "pit" is distributed a bit. In any case, it gave this hummus recipe a considerable spice experience, because the nuts I served with it were also quite spicy.

Many people know that I don't like spicy flavors. But lately I've been cooking regularly with herbs and spices that have a little more spice. I notice that I can handle it better now than before. It seems my taste buds are getting used to the sharper flavours.

Nevertheless, I have to say that I really appreciate a hummus recipe like this spicy roasted cauliflower hummus. It has a pleasant amount of spice that isn't too overpowering and goes well with the creamy texture of the hummus. I think it's important to experiment with different herbs and spices in a recipe like this to find the perfect flavor that suits you.

The chili oil gives it a lot of spice.

For example, you can experiment with different types of chili peppers, such as jalapeño or habanero, or different spices such as cumin or coriander. The beauty of this recipe is that it is very easy to adapt to your personal taste and preferences. I think it's important to be open to new flavors and experiment with different herbs and spices to challenge your taste buds and discover what you like.

Add sesame seeds, some wasabi nuts and you've shaken up your taste buds.

I chose the “white” sesame tahini, but there is also a dark version. Then only the color of your hummus will also become slightly darker. Is there any leftover? You can easily keep this in the fridge for a few days and spread it on a cracker, for example. hummus healthy
