Hummus (chickpea cream)
Chickpeas are the main ingredient in hummus. In folk language they are known as "owl peas." They may seem exotic here in Hungary, but in many countries they are as much a staple as bread is for us. They are high in both fibre and carbohydrates, and their protein content also makes them an excellent ingredient for athletes.
