#hummus

1 post1 participant0 posts today

Busy #Saturday! Went Middle Eastern-ish for #dinner tonight with a #vegan style #Qabooli - all home-made, of course:

- dried lime, basil & cardamom #rice
- date & apricot air-fryer #falafel
- #hummus dusted with sumach
- qabooli: baharat & pomegranate molasses spiced mung beans, yellow split peas, onions, apricots, pistachios & walnuts, topped with pomegranate, and rose water & saffron infused golden raisins

Replied to C.

@cazabon It's genuinely super easy. I know people always say that in recipes, but I swear it takes me maybe seven minutes total.

You just dump chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, cold tap water, olive oil and the spices (cumin, salt, maybe a bit of chili?) into a blender and blend.

The only thing that requires any additional work is peeling the garlic and squeezing a lemon, but even then you could use ready-made versions for both.

There you have #hummus.

Random #bitching...

I like #hummus. I happened to be at Sobey's and decided to get some, though it's not where I usually buy hummus. They had this brand, "Fontaine Sante" (sorry, I can't type diacritical marks), and I bought the roasted red pepper "classic natural hummus". It's this one:

It has the usual ingredients you'd expect - chickpeas, tahini, garlic, salt, lemon juice, oil - plus the roasted red pepper. Nothing unusual there.

And it's ... awful. Not only does it not taste like any hummus I've ever had, it actually tastes downright unpleasant. I'm going to end up throwing the nearly-full container in the trash, and I *hate* wasting food. And no, it's not past its best-before date or anything like that. It's fresh.

I feel bad, because it's a Canadian company, but this stuff is inedible. The brand I usually buy is Sabra, but they don't carry that at Sobey's, plus it's American. I can eat their stuff by the pound.

Anyone familiar with this Fontaine Sante brand? Is it always like this?

Het is weer vrijdag en dus tijd voor een borrelplank! Dit keer met typische smaken uit het Midden-Oosten. Hugo maakt huisgemaakte hummus en nadat je weet hoe dat smaakt, koop je het nooit meer in de supermarkt. Ook maakt hij baba genoush, een gepofte aubergine die wordt omgetoverd tot dip. Beide...
