Both are pastes made of mashed beans (peanuts and chickpeas are beans.) They also have a similar nutrient profile and are both used for similar dishes.
Peanut butter can be made solely with blended peanuts. Hummus is rarely, if ever ime, made with only blended chickpeas and also requires some oil/tahini for even the basic texture.
I was under the impression that, by definition, blended chickpeas were only one ingredient in hummus.
I thought in order to qualify as hummus it had to have blended chickpeas, tahini ( which is just blended sesame seeds, IIRC), oil, and lemon juice.
Now that I think about it, tahini and peanut butter are fairly similar in texture and consistency.
I wonder what Hummus with peanut butter would taste like.
I also wonder what peanut butter with garlic, lemon and cumin would taste like.
Peanut butter with garlic and salt is absolutely awesome.
I was about to say this sounds similar to Thai peanut sauce
Ez thai peanut sauce recipe.
Red curry paste or Panang curry paste, saute in pan. Pour in your coconut milk, dump too much peanut butter in usually crunchy and add salt/sugar to taste.
10/10 ez n good
are both used for similar dishes.
Man, I love hummus and jelly sandwiches. As well as my peanut butter shawarma.
Reese’s hummus cups are to die for.
Mmm, I’m going to melt some hummus over my ice cream.
I know you’re joking, but You’ve just given me the Idea for pad Thai shawarma.
I’d eat it
Hold up… Melting peanut butter over ice cream?
How did it take me four decades on this earth to find out that this was an option‽
Treat yourself.
I especially like to use chunky peanut butter.
Tbh, a stoned discovery that I still enjoy is chocolate chip cookies dipped in hummus.
Don’t forget about the epic peanut butter masabaha dish.
This is the kind of thinking that leads to tomatoes ending up in fruit salad.
Better hope your dump stat wasn’t charisma, then!
"Intelligence is knowing a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is knowing not to put a tomato in a fruit salad.
Charisma is being able to sell a tomato based fruit salad."
Do you have taste buds?
Idk man. I’d put peanut butter on a falafel pocket long before I’d have a hummus and jelly sandwich.
Except chocolate hummus. That shit is a totally different category though.

Peanuts and chickpeas are both legumes, just like beans. Therefor I propose that PB&Js amd hummus on bread should all be classified under “Beans on Toast”
This is an example of British colonization.
“beans on bread” I’m on board with; it’s only on toast if you toast the bread.
And hollandaise is just bougie mayo.
Uhh yes… Nothing like a hummus and jelly sandwich
I don’t put mouthfuls of hummus into my mouth
You’re missing out
But the song ‘Humus and jelly time’ doesnr have the same ring to it…

If you want to compare something to peanut butter, check out tahini. It’s basically peanut butter made out of sesame seeds, and even has a (kinda) similar flavor profile. Tahini and grape jam is delicious.
They add stuff to peanut butter to keep the oil from separating, and they add a bunch of sugar. It’s ground finer too.
I literally never bought pb that isn’t 100% peanuts. Sometimes with a bit of salt. Stop buying junk.

It’s not automatically “junk”, it’s flavored.
It just happens to be the most popular flavor in the U.S.
I like my spicy red pepper hummus, other people like their extra-oil-and-sugar smooth consistency non-separating peanut butter.
It’s like the difference between corn flakes and frosted flakes.
Junk, as in, junk food. Unhealthy. I also buy salted caramel pb sometimes just for fun. But you shouldn’t make that part of your regular breakfast…
Some brands do add that stuff, but not all
i misread this as “Peanut butter and humans are the same thing.” lol 🤣🤣🤣

In the way that ravioli, dumplings, and calzones are technically sandwiches.
Incorrect, they’re all calzones. Quesadillas are sandwiches though
