Salad with falafel and hummus - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, canned chickpeas work well for this recipe. Just rinse and drain them thoroughly before use. For the falafel, ensure you remove excess moisture by patting them dry to help with binding.
Store falafel in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Hummus lasts 4-5 days refrigerated; add a thin layer of olive oil on top to keep it fresh.
Tahini alternatives include sunflower seed butter or cashew butter for a similar creamy texture, or simply omit it and add a bit more olive oil for smoothness.
Yes! Replace the flour in the falafel with a gluten-free flour blend or chickpea flour. Ensure all other ingredients, like spices, are certified gluten-free.
Bake falafel at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, for a lighter option. Spray with oil to help crisp them up.
Reduce or omit the chili for milder skhug, or add a pinch of cayenne for extra heat. Taste as you blend to adjust.
Try adding roasted bell peppers, cucumber ribbons, or shredded carrots for extra crunch and color. Adjust grilling time based on the veggie.
Absolutely! Make falafel, hummus, and skhug 1-2 days ahead. Store separately and assemble the salad fresh for the best texture.
