Though this dip has no chickpeas in it, the consistency reminds me of hummus. On occasion, I have even added a little tahini to the blender, though it’s not at all traditional in Yucatan, where the Mayan-named sikil pak is a preparation that’s been passed down for generations. In the peninsula’s markets, you buy the seeds already ground from tiny, native, white pumpkin seeds with shells so soft they’re left on. Those seeds give the sikil pak a distinctively coarser texture-and a little less richness-than this version. Some cooks make the sikil pak mixture half tomatoes. I like a greater emphasis on the richness of the seeds. Sikil pak is pretty easy to fall in love with. At Frontera, one of our most popular starters is the half-and-half: half guacamole, half sikil pak plus plenty of just-made chips.
