EZ Restaurant-Style Hummus
This hummus recipe was perfected after a weekend of experimentation. Everyone that has tried it has loved it! Several people have said it's the best they've tasted. It tastes best if the beans and lemon juice sit first, but if you're in a hurry everything can be blended together without waiting. To serve, create wells in the hummus and drizzle with olive oil and ground paprika. If desired, garnish with diced cucumbers, tomatoes, and Greek olives for a festive salad/dip with pita bread.
Sourdough Starter
This recipe makes a sourdough starter using flour, clean water, and yeast. After fermentation has occurred, keep the starter in a covered glass container in the refrigerator until ready to use for making bread. Sourdough starters improve with age as you feed them — pass on any sourdough discards to friends and family!
Chef John's Turkey Sloppy Joes
These turkey Sloppy Joes make a very enjoyable lunch. Kept warm in a slow cooker, it could also work very nicely for a football party. This recipe tastes enough like a beef Sloppy Joe to provide those satisfying flavors, yet it seems much lighter.
