Cherry Tomatoes

There are tons of varieties of cherry tomatoes that range in color from red and yellow to green and black and size. Cherry tomatoes are round and crisp and they can be sweet or acidic. Cherry tomatoes break down more when cooked, which results in a nice flavor in pasta and on skewers.

Pear Tomatoes

Pear tomatoes are really similar to cherry tomatoes, but they’re pear-shaped. They’re usually yellow, but they can come in reds or oranges. They’re more acidic and not as sweet as cherry tomatoes because they are picked earlier in the field.

Currant Tomatoes

These tomatoes are smaller than cherry and pear tomatoes, usually the size of a fingernail. They pack an intense flavor and they’re best in pasta, salads, or tomato jams. When cooking with currant tomatoes, try not to use too much heat, and instead use them as a topping on dishes.

Here are some vegetables that are absolutely fantastic for dipping into hummus.

Cucumber

Cucumber is probably my favorite vegetable for slicing and dipping into hummus. We recommend keeping the skin on, giving the cucumber a vitamin boost, and allowing its relatively neutral flavor to allow the hummus to shine.

Tomato

Many people don’t consider tomato as an option for dipping into hummus, but the truth is that it is a fantastic choice. Be sure to choose a hearty variety of tomato that will stand up to being dipped into hummus.

Carrots

Perhaps the most popular vegetable for hummus dipping is the humble carrot. You can use either baby carrots or regular carrots that have been sliced into smaller pieces that are the perfect accompaniment to a plate of hummus. Yum!
