New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/12/2016 -- New York residents can sample a taste of the Mediterranean and take a break from the pace of city life this Friday as Nanoosh celebrates International Hummus Day with free pop-up hummus tasting bars at all of their five Manhattan locations (from 3-6pm).

Each tasting bar will feature their signature classic hummus recipe alongside red pepper hummus, and a "special recipe" for a trio that's sure to satisfy die-hard hummus fanatics and curious first-timers alike. Paired with fresh pita, and an array of traditional housemade Mediterranean sauces—like shakshuka, tzatziki, and tahini—the tasting bars even allow visitors to take home "portable pairing" samples of pita, hummus, and a sauce for later.

The art of making delicious, flavorful food starts with the origin of the ingredients, and nowhere else has more flavorful, wholesome ingredients than the Mediterranean. Nanoosh prides itself on using organic ingredients straight from the source whenever possible, and every hummus plate is made with 100% organic chickpeas, sourced from traditional farmers in the Mediterranean along with freshly made tahini, lemon juice, and garlic. Simple, timeless, and delicious.

Nanoosh uses no preservatives, no additives, and no artificial flavors or fillers of any kind, and the only oil in their kitchen is extra virgin olive oil. Every aspect of Mediterranean culture and cuisine shape what Nanoosh is today—authentic, homemade food that's as good for us as it is for our world. Their promise to their customers is simply good food one can feel good about eating.
