Zahav Foods Expands Zahav Hummus from Chef Michael Solomonov and Steve Cook at Target
Zahav Foods, the CPG brand co-founded by the trailblazing, 5-time James Beard Award-winning restaurateur duo of Chef Michael Solomonov and Steve Cook of Zahav Restaurant in Philadelphia, today announced that their iconic signature dish, Zahav Hummus (the restaurant recipe), has debuted in the refrigerated section of Target. Zahav Restaurant Recipe Hummus is available in 485 Target stores across twenty states along the East Coast, including those in the Pennsylvania/Mid-Atlantic, New York and New Jersey, New England, DMV and Florida regions.
The extra-creamy restaurant recipe Zahav Hummus retails in a 10 oz package for $7.99. Zahav Hummus offers an expert balance of flavor that relies on just six natural ingredients and no added oils — Tehina, Chickpeas, Lemon Juice, Salt, Cumin and Garlic. Made with approximately 4x the amount of premium roasted Tehina as other brands, Zahav Hummus is the first to bring the Tehina-forward style of hummus to grocery aisles across the US.
“We are excited to bring a Hummus to Target shoppers with no added oil and the same premium tehina used in our restaurants”, said Michael Solomonov and Steve Cook, co-founders of Zahav. “With just six simple ingredients, our Hummus can be both the star of your dinner table and a welcomed guest at any party.”
Zahav Foods launched its restaurant recipe Zahav Hummus on refrigerated grocery store shelves exclusively at Whole Foods Market in January 2024. The product debuted first in the Mid-Atlantic region, where it is the region’s #1-selling Hummus SKU. By September 2024 (8 months into launch), the product became available at Whole Foods Market locations nationwide.
Solomonov and Cook’s expansion into retail with Zahav Foods is the culmination of seventeen years (since Zahav’s founding) of dedication to developing the ideal version of their restaurant’s flagship dish. With Zahav Foods, the duo has brought the legendary Hummus that begins every meal at the restaurant straight to your home, whether as the centerpiece of a satisfying meal or as a dip for snacking.
