Method

Step 1: Blend, adjust, & serve

Blend all muhammara components until smooth. Adjust with more salt and flavor adjusters to preference. The texture should resemble hummus — thicken it up with more nuts/breadcrumbs, or thin it out with water.

Serve with crackers, pita, raw vegetables, or even on a sandwich as a condiment!
