The last days of 2014 are becoming increasingly distant but
its memories persist vivid
in my mind.
It is so good to break routine, to visit places that we don’t know
or haven’t visit for a while, to find other environments, different rhythms and
especially to taste other flavors...
If on one hand all the pervasive
atmosphere of the places where I was is clear in my memory with different
flavors, on the other, it reinforced the desire to return to my kitchen and to my
comfort food!
Last weekend was spent in a kind of "sleep mode", at home,
listening to the rain and to some relaxing music. We had a wonderful leisure
time, joking, telling stories around the table, and particularly tasting some
appetizing food: I put together some of the ingredients I most appreciate: blueberries and tahini!
Someone once told me that
whoever gets lost for a good chocolate, also gets lost for a good portion of
tahini ... I don’t know if you share the same opinion or not, but, for me, these
two flavors are perfect! I confess that my days would be much more gray without
chocolate and a good portion of tahini!
Spreading a whole wheat bread with
this sesame paste which has been seasoned with soy sauce and lemon, garnishing the
bread with tomato slices and having a hemp and blueberries smoothie, is one way
of finding irresistible arguments to enlarge the pleasure to stay at the table
with the family and / or friends and forget time ...
Wanna try?
Smoothie:
½ cup of
shelled hemp seeds
1.75 l water
1 cup full of blueberries
3 dates
Toasts:
Whole wheat bread
3 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp soy sauce
4 tbsp water (the measure depends on the quality of tahin
and on desired consistency)
1 tsp lemon juice
cherry tomatoes
chives
Smothie:
Place the water and seeds in a blender and grind well.
Pass through a sieve cloth.
Wash the blueberries and add the milk. Put back into the
blender, add the dates and process.
Toasts:
Wash and cut the tomatoes into slices.
Chop the chives.
Toast bread slices.
Mix the soy sauce with the tahini, add the lemon and
gradually add the water stirring
constantly, until the desired consistency.
Spread the bread with tahini, garnish with lemon slices and
sprinkle with chives.
Bon appétit!
