Key challenges in industrial hummus production

Raw material Variability

Chickpea variety, moisture content and cooking behavior impact softness, yield and the stability of the hummus base.

Batch-to-batch consistency

Maintaning the same texture, flavor and quality across every batch requires stable and reproducible process conditions.

Texture development

From coarse and rustic to smooth and creamy, texture must be achieved without over processing the product.

Ingredient & Recipe Flexibility

Tahini, oil, acid, seasoning and dry ingredients must be incorporated uniformly while supporting different recipes and fast changeovers.

Temperature & product stability

Controlled cooking and cooling are essential to develop the right product characteristics and support shelf-life and sensory quality.

Industrial efficiency & hygiene

High-viscosity handling, automation, hygienic design and effective cleaning reduce downtime and ensure safe, efficient production.

THE PERFINOX APPROACH

TWO-STAGE PROCESSING PHILOSOPHY

Our two-stage concept ensures a stable base and the perfect final product, with full control over texture, taste and consistency.

Stage 1

Building a stable base

Chickpeas are soaked, cooked and cooled under controlled conditions to create a consistent base, ready for the incorporation of sensitive ingredients.

Stage 2

Creating the final hummus

The hummus base is combined with ingredients such as tahini, oil, lemon juice, salt, spices and flavourings before controlled mixing, texture development and final cooling.
