Also, you are gonna rile up the Medieval lady talking about falafel at a Renaissance Festival! LOL!!

If you ever do try it, do tell us how it goes. I have never made the stuff either, although, if I ever get a blender which works better than the blending wand I bought when my last (good) one died, I might have a go. It looks pretty good.
