Are there bubbles in your hummus?

Don’t worry that is perfectly normal. The bubbles appear during our manufacturing process.

High-pressure processing (HPP) is a method used to preserve food by applying high pressure, typically between 100 and 800 MPa (megapascals), to the food product.

When hummus undergoes HPP, bubbles may appear due to several reasons:

  1. Gas Release: Hummus contains gases, such as carbon dioxide, that are dissolved within it. When pressure is applied during HPP, these gases can come out of solution, forming bubbles within the hummus.
  2. Air Entrapment: During the processing, air can become trapped within the hummus due to the high pressure. This trapped air can form bubbles as the pressure is released, similar to what happens when you open a carbonated beverage.
  3. Water Vaporisation: High pressure can cause water within the hummus to vaporise, forming bubbles as the pressure is released. This effect is similar to what happens when water boils at high altitudes due to reduced atmospheric pressure.

Overall, the appearance of bubbles in hummus during high-pressure processing is a complex phenomenon influenced by various factors such as gas content and water properties under high pressure.

No chemicals, preservatives or high temperatures are used to preserve this product. And it is completely safe! Enjoy the long-lasting goodness of the Ladle Hummus.

Why we love hummus

  • Nutrient-Rich: Hummus is made primarily from chickpeas, which are rich in protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. It also typically contains ingredients like tahini (sesame seed paste), olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic, all of which contribute to its nutritional value.
  • Heart-Healthy Fats: Olive oil and tahini are both good sources of monounsaturated fats, which are beneficial for heart health. These fats can help reduce bad cholesterol levels (LDL cholesterol) and lower the risk of heart disease.
  • Protein and Fiber: Chickpeas are high in protein and fiber, which can help you feel fuller for longer periods and aid in digestion. This makes hummus a satisfying and nutritious snack or addition to meals.
  • Vitamins and Minerals: Hummus contains various vitamins and minerals, including folate, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium. These nutrients are essential for various bodily functions, such as energy production, bone health, and muscle function.
  • Plant-Based: Hummus is a plant-based food, making it suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Consuming more plant-based foods in your diet has been associated with numerous health benefits, including a reduced risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.
