KosherEye.comby Levana Kirschenbaum Another wining Moroccan dish. Consider this a liquid and hot version of the increasingly ubiquitous hummus. You eat it with a spoon, not with a pita wedge. I was invited to appear on CBS Morning News, and I was given carte blanche as to what dish I wanted to showcase. Naturally, I thought I should pick something that will knock their socks off! And knock their socks off I did, with this humble soup, precisely because I was able to get fabulous results with incredibly plebian ingredients, in minutes, with pennies! Is it any wonder Moroccan food is my first and most enduring culinary love? Ingredients: 1 pound chick peas, soaked overnight and drained Directions: Bring all but last 2 ingredients to a boil. Reduce the flame to medium and cook, covered, 2 hours. Add the lemon juice and the pepper. Cream until smooth with an immersion blender. Adjust texture and seasonings. |
