Recipe Review

9th March 2013

Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT

This is a great appetizer. The chickpea tahini combination is hummus - but in this recipe its a bit different. There is very little olive oil (making it sort of light calorie-wise), and its flavored with garlic, cumin, and ground coriander seeds.

We served this with pita wedges.

Note that I used a can of chickpeas. I looked on the internet to find the right conversion - how much canned chickpeas is equivalent to 1C dry. Sites ranged from 2C to 4C - so I settled on 3C. The can gave me 1.5C, so I halved the recipe. Its so delicious, though, that I wish I had made the full batch.
