As I am close to Spain, I sometimes do the same thing with tiger nut.

Taken the recipe from a French naturopath.

 

Thanks for the French lesson.

Delicious in oatmeal cereals or baked goods. Top over yogurt, put in smoothies, use in meat loaf or meatballs. 

I also make Hemp Milk with it. Just add water and blend. Use the milk for oatmeal or anywhere milk is required.

No thank you. I just checked them out online. They have higher concentration of nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide than conventional ones sold here. I don't even smoke conventional ones here. I'll stick to my usual Spirits. Thank you.

@Ash55If you notice, I just add the recipes to some of my pictures without asking. If I feel like adding the recipes, I do, if I don't I don't. I don't want to feel pressured nor do I want you to feel pressured into doing this. I love what I do here and seems like you like to prepare foods too. Do what your heart's desire and only post recipes and instructions when it moves you to. 

That said, what's the recipe to that Caraway Super Dooper desert. Looks delicious and I'm ordering you to post the recipe. 😜

The bread looks good too, but as I'm not a terrific baker, I might end up screwing it up. I'm mostly a cook, baking for me is limited even though I've made muffins and loaf cakes before but only by following specific recipes. I have no green thumb nor baking thumb but I can cook my thumb off.

Sure @Princess Arabia here you go:
the original recipe
1 cup Caraway 1 cup sugar 1 cup Ground  white rice "not super soft like flour do it with blender"  (some use semolina instead of rice but i never tried it )
additional (optional)  Ground fennel Seeds only 1 tbls, also ground anise 1 tbls
and for that you need 10 cups of water
then you need to heat it and satire it till it solidify  and you need to mix everything super well before you add water
i dont use sugar
so i do the same recipe a bit less water and i layer it with honey once i scoop it in
so i do layer of Caraway then small layer of honey and coconut then layer of Caraway and so on
you can add Pistachio on top its too expensive here i added Almond and coconut 
that is about it its super simple and i really love it in the winter


here is a video: they are speaking  arabic "hint your name is Princess Arabia lol"  but it will give you a better idea

Thank you. If I decide to make, I'll substitute the white rice for maybe brown and also the sugar for honey as you've done yourself. Those are the only 2 things I don't use. Sugar in things I buy out or on occasion bought desserts or indirect ways but not at home.

be mindful that changing white rice can change the taste a lot but you can play with the ratio like you can have less rice or more rice
and if you come up with something good let me know, and if you made it share pictures here and show me your take

Ok. I don't eat white rice so I'll have to substitute it if making it. But ll come up with something. There's usually something for substitution in anything, mostly anyway.

Not a fan. I barely eat brown rice but on occasion. Not a rice fan. Only black or wild (which I love). Don't get me wrong, I love rice, I just don't eat much of it because of the gluten and how it's harvested and grown here. Not a fan of wheat even though sometimes I eat wheat products on occasion. Somehow my skin doesn't agree with it and if I eat it too much I get rashes or a build up of candida so I'm guessing I'm slightly gluten intolerant.

Made this for dinner today.

Honey Stewed Chicken W/Brown Rice and Peas.

Chicken:

To pan add oil and raw honey. Melt the honey while stirring (5mins). Add seasoned chicken legs that are cut in half. Seasoned Chk (S&P, Garlic & Onion Powders, Freshly Chopped Thyme and Rosemary, Paprika, Pinch Ground Cloves, Cayenne Pepper. Season as you wish. The main thing is the Honey and Cayenne to balance out the Honey. Any hot pepper will do (no seeds).

Cook chicken half way through stirring constantly, approx (20mins). Add 1/2Cup Apple Cider Vinegar; stir and cook 5mins more. Add lots of chopped scallions and freshly squeezed lime juice. Cover and cook 10-15mins till chicken is done while occasionally stirring. Finish off with lots of chopped parsley, cilantro or basil leaves.

Oooh, i love me some hummus. Loved this video. He gave some good tips, as in adding ice to form a creamy texture if it's too thin. The varieties are endless. I've even made avocado hummus. Never knew about adding baking soda before cooking chick peas. Thanks for sharing.
