Green Pea Hummus

20240401 #breakfastdiary 1020, 7°C/mostly sunny I misjudged the cooking time and ended up having to take a taxi to work, but it was a worthwhile choice. #greenpeahummus Boil 300g green peas in salted water. Transfer to cold water and let cool slightly. Blend the cooked peas with 4 tbsp of the pea cooking water, 1 tbsp tahini, 1 tbsp lime juice, 1 clove garlic, 1/4 tsp cumin, 2 tbsp olive oil, and 1/2 tsp salt. Add mint leaves and cilantro and blend to finish. Plate it and grind in olive oil and pink pepper by hand. I ate it with sourdough for dipping. ☝️(Of course you could easily finish it solo, but,) this makes a good amount to share happily between two. ☝Use the pea cooking water to adjust the consistency. ☝️Tahini is easy to make yourself — just blend 1/2 cup toasted sesame seeds with about 2 tbsp olive oil. In other words, it's sesame dressing. A recipe from the #commonvegetablesbecomeuncommondrinkingsnacks series. Q. If you had to choose, green pea hummus or chickpea hummus — which one would you pick?
