FAQ
- How do I get a clean level tablespoon of Hummus?
- Stir first to eliminate air pockets, then scoop and scrape flush with a knife. A heaping spoon reads 20–30 % higher.
- Can I warm Hummus before measuring a tablespoon?
- Slightly, yes — it reduces clinging and fills the spoon cleaner. Do not warm beyond what the recipe tolerates.
