Hummus mit Joghurt

Hummus with yogurt – homemade!

May 18th, 2019 | side dishes

Hummus is one of the tastiest and healthiest dips I can imagine. Perfect on the BBQ buffet, but also great for your veggie day with a colorful salad and flatbread. How to make the delicious oriental cream of chickpeas and sesame, I tell you in my today’s post.

Hummus with yogurt – homemade!

If you want to do the hummus from scratch, I’m afraid it takes you a little time. You must soak the chickpeas in water at least overnight and cook them the next day in fresh water for about two hours. With a soaking time of 24 hours, the cooking time is reduced to about one hour. From my point of view, there is nothing wrong with using chickpeas from canning or glass. Then the hummus is ready in no time.

And now the best hummus recipe ever:

Hummus with yogurt

(serves 4)

400 g of chickpeas (from the jar or tin)
drain in a colander, put some chickpeas aside as a decoration, puree the rest with a blender
25 g Tahin (sesame paste)
100 g (Greek) yogurt
25 ml of lemon juice
salt
add and process to a smooth paste
1 - 2 tomatoes
quarter, core, dice small, dab with kitchen paper or drain in a sieve
3 stems of smooth parsley
chop
1 - 2 garlic cloves
chop very finely
mix the tomatoes, parsley and garlic into the chickpea puree and place in a bowl
1-2 TS olive oil
drizzle over the chickpea paste, decorate with chickpeas and parsley

Carinthian cake – like on the alp

An Austrian farmer’s wife gave me the recipe for this traditional Carinthian cake. Many years ago, when there was no internet and no airbnb, we had rented their mountain hut for the summer holidays. A hut without running water, without electricity and light. But with a wood stove, ringing cowbells, marmots and heavenly peace. As a welcome gift, we found this cake on the table. When I bake it today, I can almost smell the hut.

Venice going nuts with Vogalonga

Venice is almost like coming home. I was here already so often to go aboard with my dearest captain. This time he picked me up on a Sunday morning in June on the shuttle bus from Treviso airport, and took me almost immediately in a “quiet, idyllic restaurant right on the canal with food as at home in a Venetian family.” The food was indeed as promised. The atmosphere… quite different…

Women’s power and the color lilac

I would describe myself as a wine lover, but definitely not as wine connoisseurs. I know if I like the taste of a wine or not. And, Yes, I confess that the label of a bottle for me is not quite irrelevant. Therefore, maybe my favorite color lilac was somewhat of a guide when I placed my first wine order in Nierstein [also known as Riesling city at the banks of river Rhine]. Because Lisa likes lilac. Now, the shooting star of the young German wine makers has promised to give her personal wine recommendations for selected Captain’s Dinner menus. And this is the way it happened.
