How long does it keep?

It will keep well for three to four days in the refrigerator.

Can you freeze black bean hummus?

No, it won't freeze so can't I recommend it.

Can you use other kinds of beans?

You can go more traditional and use chickpeas (garbanzo beans) for this recipe. Or try some white beans like cannellini beans.

It's a Middle Eastern sauce or paste made from sesame seeds. You can buy tahini at the grocery store or you can make your own homemade tahini (recipe from Amira's Pantry) if you're feeling very DIY.

Can you make hummus without tahini?

Yes, you can leave it out if you prefer. It will just have a different flavor.
