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:

https://www.fontainesante.com/en/products/hummus-rrp

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?

Tonight I made (inspired by Derek Sarno) collard greens, kale and chickpeas. There are three portions in the pan. The fourth portion was eaten with new potatoes. Delicious and very, very cheap. A load of washing up but you don't mind that when you've gone and made your tea for four nights! #VeganFood #vegan #DerekSarno #greens #veggies #VeganUK #GoVegan #EatPlants #DeleteTheMeat #EatPlantsNotAnimals #chickpeas

I made a heavily modified WaPo recipe for a stew using chickpeas, farro, tomatoes, and kale, among other things. It tastes great.

Minutes is all it takes to make satay chickpeas which can be paired with so many options. I call this cheat cooking as it's so easy. #satay #chickpeas #recipes #food #vegan

I saw a chickpea-and-farro stew recipe that sounded good, so I'll be making it—but with the modifications noted.

December 1, 2024. We are processing raw chickpea hummus to enjoy later. The green chickpeas have been sprouted. The hummus will ferment on the counter to blend the flavors. The garlic and Rempah are garden fermentations. The tahini and dry spices are from the store. #hummus, #growyourown, #garlic, #Rempah, #minnesota, #chickpeas
