Chickpeas are cheap, healthy and can be used for a myriad of dishes. Unfortunately, they have to be soaked many hours before they can be cooked. Who of us remember to do that? So it usually ends with canned chickpeas, or with something else entirely. Fortunately, you can cook them in under an hour with a pressure cooker.
In this kvalilog I make a 3-bean salad packed lunch for a trip to Superbooth in Berlin. Superbooth is the world's largest synthesizer festival. you arrive at the festival via a boat trip down the Spree.
this salad is one of the quickest and easiest dishes I know off, that also tastes good. I use it occasionally for boxed lunch because it is a lot of food in a little space. Which is practical when you are going to carry it along. However, the salad is equally good as an a side for lunch or dinner. Especially if you are a training hard and need as much protein as possible.
Normally, white potato salad is made with mayonnaise, but I prefer a white sauce made with yoghurt and cream. It is easy to make and equally well suited for everyday dining and parties, red meat or barbecue sausages. Also, you often have all the ingredients in the fridge, so it's faster than ordering a pizza.
Green potato salad is a good recipe if you are note able to make a gravy to go with your potatoes, or if it has to be quick meal. Oh yeah, it is also a good dish simply because it taste fantastic. You can also make it in as large portions as you have pots for cooking potatoes, and the potatoes can even be cooked the day before and put in the fridge, so it's great for parties. The recipe can be varied indefinitely depending on which seasoning and herbs you like.
This is an even better version of potato chips. They fry better. They taste better. Just slightly acidic and mildly salted all the way through. It is basically the same recipe as regular potato chips. The only difference is that they are fermented before cooking. Basically like homemade saukraut is made
There is no doubt that potato chips are easiest to just buy. But the uniformity of the factory made I find unattractive. So when it is gin-tonic Friday in the small home, it is time to bring out the homemade chips. And the homemade guacamole. And salsa fresca.
