Happy New Year to you too Chetna! Some people do say that (I know Jains use hing as a substitute for garlic) but in my opinion, they taste nothing alike. Again, its only my opinion. I have never tried hing in hummus but that’s not to say that it won’t taste good. Also, hing is usually added to hot oil to get rid of the raw pungent taste. You would be adding it raw here. I would take out a small portion of hummus and add just a bit of hing to see if you like it before adding it to the whole batch. Good luck!

HAPPY NEW YEAR……..

Thank you Hetal.

I have heard from someone that asofedia (hing) is also one of the substitute like instead of adding garlic we can add hing, is it right and how would it taste, i am not exactly sure abt this….. Your advise on the same will be highly appreciated.

Hi Chetna,

There is no good substitute for garlic but you could add some other flavoring like Jalapeno or Roasted Red Bell Pepper or Sun-dried tomatoes.

Hi Hetal and Anuja

Hummus is one of my favourite dish. Would like to know instead of garlic can we use anything else, as we dont eat garlic. I know garlic gives really gr8 taste in Hummus.
