I don’t not eat hummus cause it’s LEFTY I don’t not eat it cause I’m ISLAMAPHOBIC
I’d love it if that was a menu item in a restaurant. “Lefty nonsense”. No explanation. If you ask about it, they’d just say “you’ll just have to find out”. You see, cooking is an art, it tells a lot about the artist. Will you get served social commentary thick with sarcasm or do they just reveal troubling things about themselves? It’s a gamble.
Sorry haven’t had coffee yet
No, by all means, keep going
I just had hummus for breakfast
Did not seem to influence my politics
Really ? count your blessings… I had my first political awakening at 12 after a nice plate of hummus with lebanese bread. It was a new, tingling sensation that left me wanting more… and sure enough it didn’t stop there. At just 15, I got radicalized by a delicious falafel with red cabbage. It could have been a one-off, but noooooo, I had set foot on the slippery slope : dolmas, tapenade, merenjainade… the ancient power of mediterranean gastronomy had gotten a hold of me. This is how I became a leftist
The sensation LEFT you wanting for more?
The sensation LEFT you wanting for more?
RIGHT
I can relate. Black licorice was my life altering moment that sent me spiraling
Just as we speak, I am writing this comment from the pouch of a kangaroo as I bound across the Australian outback with my new family
To each their own, but hummus had no effect on me
Are they fond of that stuff down under? I know it mainly from Scandinavia and the Netherlands.
Political discourse in 2025, accurately summarized
Because it’s a bot.
I liked you better before you went woke.
Ugh. Rage Against the Machine went woke?
I miss the days where they just shouted “fuck you” and didn’t insist on any sort of social or political justice.
And Star Trek! Don’t even get me started! So woke now!
And don’t even mention sesame Street. It’s all just “be nice to each other” hippie propaganda
Preposterous! Won’t anybody think of the economy!
The same Star Trek that eliminated need and so the population could seek their own success? Totally capitalist.
I assumed the original poster is left handed and making nonsensical left handed hummus swirls.
No, no, it’s all part of the radical left agenda to make us all transsexual!
No they makes us Hummusexual
Oddly it was the first thing to pass through my mind too for some reason. How do you make a dip political ?
There’s no meat in it. The meat industry and the bbqsexuals are offended by this.
I met a guy preaching the carnivore diet bullshit. He was actually a pretty nice dude, not a right winger just fell for the silly carrots are poison nonsense. I didn’t even bother to point out bioaccumulation / biomagnification, I was too preoccupied trying to understand where these insanely stupid ideas come from. I heard through our mutual friend he abandoned those ideas.
There is definately overlap with political chicanery. Super weird.
Left is when not burger but else food 😔
Potato is communism now.
hungary … well, implied!
Dat’s a raw vein of untapped soyjak potential right there!
Woah woah woah one whole sack of communism!?
Shit, a condominium!
That’s socialstudies!
I thought it was geology?
That weird healthy shit is for foreigners and lefties.
I really like hummus. Actually, I love hummus.
I guess you could even say that I’m a hummusexual
I love that eating falafel with hummus is literally chickpea meatballs with chickpea sauce
DO NOT fuck the hummus.
i didnt fuck my hummus. i didnt cum on my hummus. i didnt put my dick anywhere near my hummus. Ive never done anything weird with my hummus. I promised myself i wasnt going to make apology videos after last years thing so im just trying to be as short and honest with this as possible (1/?)
why NOT
yeast infection :(
It’s helpful to always have a sourdough starter on or about your person.
How do you make a quick hummus for lunch? I swear when I start cooking, I blink and it’s an hour later.
Probs buy the hummus ready made and then put the herbs/olive oil on yourself.
Maybe toast some flatbreads if you’re feeling extra fancy
Touché, they didn’t say made from scratch. Not sure why I jumped there.
How do you end up cooking hummus??
I literally just open a can of chickpeas, dump all but a bit of the liquid (aquafaba) out, and pot the chickpeas, aquafaba, tahini, oil, garlic and spices into my food processor and set it to kill and I have delicious hummus 😁
By starting with dried chickpeas
I feel like you can make hummus in a few minutes with an immersion blender and canned chickpeas.
Yep, 3 minute meal. Plus a couple of hours for the pita, lol.
Pita, Pain In The Ass
As bread, one of the easier forms. As a serving with souvlaki and tzatziki when on the beach, it’s a sand magnet.
I don’t eat food near beaches because of the seagulls. Never even considered that sand would be an issue. Damn gulls will steal anything they can.
And tahini
plus tahini, lemon and a wee bit of salt
Garlic. Lots of garlic.
I always go big on the tahin. It’s awesome stuff.
Damn, I wish I’d invested in hummus when I had the chance. I knew it was going places.
You will never financially recover from your decision.
Hummus is good, but making it “quick” is indeed nonsense
? Blending chickpeas and a few other things doesn’t take long at all. Is there something I’m missing?
Unless you’re using canned or pre-prepared chickpeas, you’re spending between 1 and 5 hours waiting for them to cook through. Otherwise, like 20 minutes from start to finish.
Is there a benefit? That feels like complaining you need to butcher a chicken for the breasts, instead of just buying the breasts.
If you cook them yourself, you can ensure it bit more bite in the texture, if that is your thing. But for a quick hummus there is absolutely nothing wrong with using canned chickpeas.
Yeah that’s what I figured. Weird someone would say it’s not quick. But here we are.
But for hummus you want to overcook the chickpeas
Way cheaper to buy bulk chickpeas though
in theory, but it’s cheaper for me to get canned chickpeas from Costco than dried chickpeas. I couldn’t find dry ones anywhere that are cheaper than canned Costco.
i make a few kg per week and I’m really trying to find the cheapest way to make it
Yep, glad my local Aldi started stocking them now
Terrible analogy. Preparing chickpeas is simple but time consuming, butchering a chicken by hand is both time consuming and difficult (and disgusting - Ive seen it, by pure luck am the only one in my household to never do it).
I’m just highlighting the differences in perception and time. Boxed cake vs mixing the ingredients yourself. Freezing brownie mix for later vs baking immediately. Though you do get much smoother, less metallic hummus from cooking the beans yourself. You’ve mistaken information for an argument
You’ve mistaken information for an argument
My remark was at the original commenter about it not being quick. Complaining it’s slow because you need to boil and cook beans is like saying it takes a long time to prep chicken breast, because you have a whole chicken instead of the assumed breasts.
And I finished my comment by pointing out that it could take as little as 20 minutes, including cleanup, affirming your comment.
If I cared to write a novel detailing every nuance of the human experience in regards to food, writing recipes, and clarifying myself indefinitely, I’d be a food blogger. I can see how you’d interpret what I’d written as something else, but in the end, you can just pull the relevant information from an internet person and move on.
There’s no social hierarchy here that you’d need to care about. Except food bloggers. They’re at the bottom.
Okay…? Why are you bloviating and thinking I’m arguing with you because I asked a couple questions? Nothing I said was aggressive or was even directed at you, do you think every comment is a slight against you? You started commenting to me, not the other way around for the record.
I know hummus takes a few minutes or couple hours, but it’s weird for someone to complain it’s not quick. Because they’re choosing a harder way for no reason. So maybe there was some valid reason that makes it better, but as you said there isn’t. Maybe there was a secret that wasn’t readily available online. But no… just snarky commentators.
As you said a premixed cake is quick. So if someone were to complain that no it isn’t, because you need to weigh stuff or some other secret…. That’s friggen strange dude, so maybe there’s a secret, so that’s why people ask and have a conversation. And then someone like you thinks they’re arguing? Give your head a shake dude.
Canned chickpeas, and some additives: a few minutes.
Soak chickpeas overnight: 2 minutes (labour). Cook in pressure cooker for about an hour: 10 minutes. Cool and blend: 3 minutes over about half an hour.
Cleanup: more than you think.
It’s always the clean up that gets you. I’d be making hummus a lot more often otherwise.
REAL americans use REAL chickpeas for hummus, not canned chickpeas like communist.
First you have to grow the chickpeas, of course.
Maybe y’all got some magical equipment, or the stuff I had was shit. Aside from the fact I cooked my chickpeas myself, which ofc took 20 minutes cooking (and whole night of soaking), it took me so much time and effort to blend it properly, I swear. It was worth it, but that’s one of the reasons I did it only once
Electric pressure cooker (like an Instant Pot) cooks dried legumes in 30-40 minutes without soaking.
I am not a restaurant, buying that kind of equipment to use it twice a year is a complete waste
I stand with Hummus #freePalestine
Hummus is so good 😋
Right? Glad I don’t have to avoid tasty foods because they’re too woke.
But but you risk exposing yourself to spices! Possibly even flavor!
Flavor is for gays and the Dutch.
gestures to stamppot, snert, and pannekoeken uh… What flavor?
This is the future libtards want 😤 share this post to keep woke humus out of our schools 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The who-knows-what-sexual that took the pic of homo-umus didn’t show them/them painted fingernails for some reason 👉🏻✊🏻 /s
If you are as tired as I am with that whole “breaking spaghetti in half makes Italians mad or whatever” meme, let me introduce you to “I make hummus with peanut butter instead of tahini”.
I’m American and even I got this look when I read that sentence.
Even just mashing up roasted peanuts isn’t going to give the same flavor. It probably works texture wise, but I’m certain that my palette would reject the combination of chick peas and peanuts.
I’ve done that. It’s not the worst. To be fair to me, I live in Korea and tahini is prohibitively hard to find. (Chick peas have at least become more common over the years.) Lately, I use olive oil and sesame seeds blended into a kind-of pseudo-tahini instead. It’s definitely better than the peanut butter.
The background makes no sense to me. Where is the table?
What’s going on with the glass door in the bottom left corner?It’s a sliding patio door, with a bag of charcoal for their grill outside. You can see the vertical blinds hanging in the top left corner, which apartments frequently use to cover patio doors like this:
They simply opened the blinds to the side to get better lighting.And the wooden dowel in the bottom of the track is used like a door bar, to keep burglars/home invaders from opening the door even if they manage to jimmy the lock:
They’re wearing jeans and a green jacket. You can see an arm in the bottom right corner, holding the plate. My guess is that they were looking for better lighting, and the sunlight from the patio door was the best spot they had.
You’re that character they bring in to solve the weird murders.
That was a very high quality and detailed analysis, well done
I think they’re holding it near their patio door for better lighting
If you look at the bottom right of the screen there is clearly an arm and a sleeve holding the plate up.
What if it was Israeli hummus
that’s like attaching buttered toast to the back of a cat and dropping it, Murphy’s law means it will spin in place just above the ground, as both the cat must land on it’s feet and the toast must land butter side down
Thank you for reminding me that I wanted to try this game.
Bwahaha added to my steamlist
this, don’t buy Sabras or other Israeli brands
The hummus company is complicit in the genocide?
the whole nation.
Sabras grows their chickpeas illegally in the west bank.
yo thanks for this i had no idea
