Don’t forget the weird cheese made from rice which, while it tastes a little funny, reminds you of the hearth around which your forefathers sat.

Skua@kbin.earth 5 months agoNice bread, some houmous and balsamic to dip it in (separately, of course), marinated olives and artichoke hearts, grilled courgette and tomatoes

I’ve never seen anyone spell hummus like that lol! Apparently that’s how they spell it in the UK?
Skua@kbin.earth 5 months ago
I am in the UK so that would make sense. Going solely off of wikipedia's page on the romanisation of Arabic, I'd hazard a guess that the UK spelling came via French
Klear@lemmy.world 5 months ago
I never realised that it’s not from latin, but apparently the words hummus and humus have nothing to do with each other.

How do you marinate an olive?
commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 months ago
garlic, capers, olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, basil, oregano, some giardiniera, pepperocini and a couple pickled onions.
i recommend mostly “black” olives with a few green ones for the salt and a bit more color.

Green ones with garlic and lemon juice are top notch though

do you have a muffaletta recipe?

And some nice salted balls I mean balls I mean balls I mean nuts
jaybone@lemmy.world 5 months ago
You have a good sense of houmous.

I broke my arm in grade school and it has a kink in it now, everyone tells me it’s humerus
jaybone@lemmy.world 5 months ago
They should tell you it’s kinky.
That would be humorous.
