How to Make a Hummus Platter

Creating a beautiful hummus platter is simple and involves arranging a variety of finger-food ingredients like veggies, cured meats, cheese, nuts, and crackers onto a large platter, usually a nice cutting board.

Of course, you can’t forget the hummus, this is the focal point of the platter, and you can use plain or a couple of different flavors.

Place the hummus onto the platter first, and then arrange the ingredients around it so that it’s the focal point of the board.
