SO HOW'D IT GO?
thanks l2a!!! :) don't ask how, but i sooo forgot there was a such thing as a coffee grinder :X
vab-you can get a cheap coffee grinder to process nuts, seeds, and herbs really quick and easy!
aigroc,
i'm making my groc. list today, and i'm adding a buncha your recipe ingredients to my ingredients list, to try out some of your recipes. but question: i don't have a vita-mix. (sad i know, but i dont have one yet).
can i grind sesame seeds in the FP or blender, and will it achieve the same result? the raw store is closed this late, and i know the tahini at wal-mart is toasted, and likely any tahini at the asian market....
Delicious!!!
I added more tahini because I love tahini, and I was out of oil. But it turned out great!
My son and I LOVE it! :)>>>
EDIT!!!! I don't know hwo to edit the recipe, so I'll jsut say this here; it's 1-2 tsp of paprika! I'm so sorry, I hope no one tried the 12 tsp!! :P
