Yesterday there was a demonstration against companies who are working with pesticides, ruin farmers, working with GMO and who are big companies.
I am talking about Monsanto, the most famous one, Syngenta, the biggest one, Bayer, BASF, Pioneer and Dow.
For me this was a good way to show the people I am against it, unfortunately it wasn’t so crowded, maybe it was the time of the day and the day in the week. On Wednesday a lot of people are working. And I had to leave earlier also because I was with the little boys.
But after all I was glad to be there. A couple of weeks ago I was demonstrating against the hummus again (to eat it), so I wanted to make a variation on it. And yes I made a variation with a basic of raw soaked cashew nuts!
And here you will get the recipe also
The ingredients for the ‘hummus’ on a different way
200 gram of chick peas (soaked overnight in a bowl with water and cook for 1 1/2 hour and /get rid of the peel after cooking by taking a chickpea in 2 fingers and slide the peel off for more creamy hummus/)
200 gram of raw cashew nuts (soaked overnight in a bowl with water)
1/2 lemon juice
3 tablespoons of cold pressed olive oil
3/4 cup of basil leaves
1/2 cup of chopped mint leaves
1/2 cup of water
some cayenne pepper/salt or black pepper to taste
Kitchentools
a food processor
How to begin……
Just easy this one, wash all the herbs! Get al the other ingredients together.Go to the food processor, put in all the ingredients except for the water and olive oil (and salt/pepper and cayenne pepper). Let the s-blade do his job, cutting the ingredients, in the same time you poor in slowly the water and the oil. You see the mixture is getting smooth, if you like it more smooth you poor in some more water. Put in some pepper and salt to taste!
When it’s ready put it in a jar and in the fridge it can stay for almost one week, I always smell at the mixture if it taste strange. If it does get rid of it 😉
Enjoy
