Hummus is a blank slate. You can add lots of different things to it. I make regular hummus then toss in some Kalamata olives and olive juice for Kalamata olive hummus.

Shhh, don't tell everyone. Black olives (usually Kalamata) is the secret ingredient in my hummus. It really kicks it up a notch. When you write "olive juice", do you mean the brine in the jar of olives?

Yes, the liquid the olives are packed in. When you make hummus, you usually need a little liquid to adjust the texture. USe the Olive liquid in place of water.

Sounds like a great idea. I would leave out the salt until after tasting it. Olive juice can be quite salty.
