Hummus in Bangalore, Pita bread in Bangalore
We said we’re going to be back with something different didn’t we?
Travel and food is a combination we
personally connect with, and when that is brought into the picture with a new
venture, we cannot be happier. And because of the same reason, we are bringing
you another post that has some a huge influence on food from
travels.
This post is all about a couple of
young entrepreneurs in Bangalore, experimenting with something very simple yet
out of the box. I’m sure many of our readers have tried this particular Middle
Eastern food item, but probably didn’t think about playing with its flavours.
We’re talking about hummus which falls mainly under the popular Middle-Eastern/
Mediterranean foods. So, if someone asks us about the best place to try out
hummus in Bangalore, our answer would be at home, and an order in from Yummus!
Yes, Yummus! This is
an online establishment, providing their services in Bengaluru, from where you
can order delicious hummus & get it delivered right at your doorstep. They
have a very interesting back story which can be found on their website. Their
hummus is made fresh to order & does not contain any preservatives.
Moreover, their products are all vegan, so if you’re looking for a planet-friendly alternative then it can’t get better than this.
They currently have 7 flavours of hummus in
their arsenal & are planning to come up with other variants. We tried their
Bell Pepper hummus, Beet Root hummus, Spinach hummus &, lastly, the Classic
Hummus. Their other variants include Carrot, Basil Pesto & Green Olive Hummus. So if you are looking for some Hummus in Bangalore, they are worthy
of many orders!
Coming down to what we think about
their services and most importantly, the Hummus or shall we say Yummus!
Bell Pepper Hummus: All their
hummus items have the right consistency but when it comes to flavour, we feel
that this one takes it one step further. You can feel the bell pepper flavours
in each morsel. We believe that some smokiness can be introduced in this &
that’ll ensure that these never see the fridge. Cause you can store these up to
two days.
Spinach Hummus: The colour
is really appealing and the flavour of spinach is not over-powering. It has the
right amount of flavor in it & we really liked this one. The flavour
combination worked out best with their paprika Lavash. This is a perfect way of
adding some more greens to your diet since anyway, hummus is a perfect health
food!
Beet Root Hummus: Out of all
the 4 we tried, this is the only one which lacked the characteristic beetroot
flavour. We were excited to try out this one especially because of the
challenges involved. If there is too much beetroot, the hummus will tend to
become sweeter. In this case, the colour was spot on but, it does need more beetroot flavour, maybe we’d like some more sweetness of the beetroot in fact. Apart
from this, it ticks all the other boxes.
Classic Hummus: Well, this
is your regular hummus which does not need any introduction or explanation. If
we order from them, we’ll probably focus on their original creations rather
than something we can get elsewhere. But, if you are actually looking for a
regular hummus without any additional flavours, this is a good option. We’d
suggest adding a bit of olive oil on top before you eat it.
Apart from Yummus {Hummus}, we
tried their Whole wheat Pita Bread which was very soft & fluffy. It is soft
and perfect with the spreads and is definitely worth the money. What they
provide is near to the real deal. Lastly, their Paprika Lavash has the right
crunch to it & is an excellent tried & tested combination with the
hummus.
We have some of the Lavash left and
will definitely order some more of the Bell pepper hummus to finish the lavash
up!
One thing to note is their products
are mostly for immediate consumption & for limited refrigeration. The ideal
period for refrigeration is 3 days & they advise to consume before that.
Their delivery service is also
pretty reliable & they deliver mostly on time. They provide a decent value
for money but we’d suggest to buff up the quantity marginally.
Kudos to the Yummus team for
this initiative.
We’ll be back with more interesting
stories.
Till then –maintain proper hygiene
& bon apetit!
