Jalapeno Hummus RecipesTwenty years ago, you’d have never found a jalapeño hummus on the shelf. In fact, you’d barely have found ANY hummus on the shelf! In the last two decades, the food has world undergone a drastic change. Hummus, once a niche Mediterranean cultural product, has become a globally recognized and sought-after superfood. In 1997, U.S. hummus sales barely topped $5 million—whereas last year, that same number stood at $700 million, and is expected to rise to $1.1 billion in just four years! As people have realized that hummus is both delicious and incredibly healthy, they have spoken in dollars… and transformed the world’s food landscape.

Thankfully, this increased demand has created a proliferation of new hummus companies and flavors! Gone are the days when you could only find the same old Original, Lemon Garlic, and Sundried Tomato flavors… now you’ve got tons of choices from companies competing for your loyalty. However, in all those options, where can you go when you want some heat in your dip? In other words, how can you get your hands on a great jalapeño hummus?

Choosing Your Jalapeño Hummus

Even if you only look back 10 years ago, hot hummus wasn’t really a thing. Classic Mediterranean flavors dominated the market. And if you wanted some heat, you had to make your own hummus, or buy a container of Original flavor and dice your own jalapeños and throw in some cayenne! But today, you can find store-bought jalapeño hummus made with premium ingredients, free of unnatural preservatives, and as flavorful as fresh homemade hummus.

This remarkable feat is achieved by both high standards and revolutionary new technologies. What do we mean? Here are some of the criteria you can use to evaluate and choose a hummus brand that is as healthy as the homemade version:

Before picking a jalapeño hummus flavor, it’s important to check the brand. Plenty of hummus companies skimp on quality to increase profit margins, but you can still find some who prioritize your wellness!
