Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 This is wild, Mark! thanks so much - I love almonds - and tahini - and this would be sooooo good. As for the soup recipe you just posted, I'm off to find some nice avocadoes! ;=) Best love, Pat ;=) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 Hi All... So I tried making the Almond Yumm today, and almost wore out my cheap-a** blender doing it (I really do need to get a new one!)...but I did add some spices to it (cumin and chili powder and tons of garlic)...it came out chunky though because my blender started smoking at that point so I had to stop *laugh*...at the initial taste, I wasn't too thrilled (it didn't taste bad really...I think it was because it was just different, you know?) but I'm going to let it sit so the spices can mingle, etc and I'll report back... oh, and I started using rice noodles the other day at home, and man, are they better than the instant crap I've been eating......

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 Gina, So delighted that you made and reported back on your attempts at making the almond yumm. Did you let the almonds soak enough? I found that by not letting them soak enough that sometimes happens. YOu might try a vita mix for making it, that is what I use. Very powerful and works wonderfully. They are expensive though. Sorry about the blender!!!

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 yeah, I let them soak overnight (I sleep long during the week, so)...I've had issues with the blender for awhile now...I love my parents, and I'm glad they got me a blender when I asked for it, but...*grin* I was thinking though, that I like my hummus a little chunky too, so we shall see...I may try it with those tacos I think you posted (right?)....have you ever added any other spices to it?
