Is hummus anything like peanut butter?

Pb is gross so i dont know if i would like something similar to it
Maybe sort of texture wise, but even that is a stretch.
I am going to with No.

Well, peanut butter is often with added sugar and whatnot. If you got the stuff that's just pureed peanuts, that isn't really something you'd spread on your bread. Instead, you can use it for cooking, e.g. mix it into sauces to make the sauce more creamy and hearty.
You can absolutely spread natural peanut butter on bread (ie ingredients: peanuts). Are you thinking of powdered peanut butter? Because that you would need to rehydrate to use as a spread.

The fat is optional. You're supposed to add olive oil to taste after serving, not while you make it.
Tahine is not optional. Tahine is sesame butter.

I have hummus practically every day as a spread in my sandwiches. In between I add cucumber, pumpkin seeds, marinated tempeh, tomato, lettuce, sometimes red cabbage and mayo. My new staple!
Sounds delicious, you should post your creations in [email protected]

I don't know, I haven't heard of people doing that and I feel like I'd need to throw some salad or tomato on top to make it worthwhile.
But I might also misjudge it, because we don't call the 100% peanut stuff "peanut butter" in my country and well, because I haven't really tried it.
To be honest, though, the main point of my comment was that it's great for cooking. I really don't feel like you'd want to mix the sugary stuff into even a fraction of the sauces that I put the 100% peanut stuff in.

Not at all. I love peanuts but hate peanutbutter. I also love hummus. Its way tangier and not as thick as peanut butter. I have found a few local brands that are dry and thick that I can't stand.

Sounds good. I usually do hummus, sriacha, turkey, cucumber, red onion, tomato and lettuce.

Sure, you can put hummus ON a sandwich, but you wouldn't make just a hummus sandwich like you can with peanut butter.
That was more my point.Like ranch dip, you can put ranch on a sandwich, but you wouldn't make a ranch sandwich.

idk, imo peanutbutter sandwiches are pretty terrible. Its like you have a choking kink and want a pick-me-up at lunch.

Going to go ahead and say, no, they are in no way similar for any practical purpose.
Also, why are you asking Lemmy? Just go buy some hummus and put it in your mouth and you'll figure out if you like it or not.

I'd been off peanut butter for years. Restarted because of a dog. I don't buy any with sugar (Adam's is just peanuts), as it's bad for me, bad for the dog.
Sugar additives are a plague that spans most US foods.
