If you’re planning a Halloween get-together that leans more moody glam than monster mash, this Black Hummus is your secret weapon. It’s rich, earthy, and just mysterious enough to make your guests ask, “Wait… what is that?” (in a good way).
Forget the orange overload — this dip brings serious drama to your snack spread. Made with black beans, black tahini, lemon, garlic, and a drizzle of honey, it’s equal parts smoky, savory, and bright. Think of it as your go-to party trick: simple to make, striking to serve, and absolutely addictive.
Pro Tip:
Serve this bewitching dip in a low black bowl with gold spoons and charcoal crackers for that perfect spooky-chic aesthetic. A few pomegranate arils or edible flowers make it pop like tiny rubies against the inky backdrop. Pair with a smoky cocktail (we recommend our Corn Cob Basil Gimlet for balance) and your Halloween soirée just graduated from cute costume night to grown-up glam affair.
Because honestly? Nothing says hauntingly elegant like a black dip that tastes as good as it looks.
