Don't ask me why. They do ask if I mean Hummus Yukon. It could be a different spelling, but as far as I know it is spelled as I have it.
It's normally a lenten dish. It's good stuff. Hearty enough to fill you for the those no meat meals or use a smaller portoin for a side dish. It makes a good soup before a main course too.
Try it.
