    Just a friendly suggestion from a lebanese, crush the garlic, add salt and work it into the salt well until it forms a paste, then add lemon juice and stir well. Let it sit at least five minutes before use.

    • @AH-cy4md
      @AH-cy4md 3 года назад +23

      Yes, it makes an amazing difference!😋. And by letting the chopped garlic sit, the beneficial sulphorophanes that are formed when garlic is chopped or crushed, retain all the healthy properties even when cooked.
      These look delicious, definitely going to try the vegan versions, thanks for sharing! 🙏🏼

      It's also important for educational channels to actually dare show mistakes. Learning anything will require some practice where you're not very good at it at first. It's important to show that too.
      I notice a lot of people who watch any sort of channels that teach skills (cooking, DIY, woodworking, drawing...) that assume that the person just has innate "talent" that is inaccessible to them, when in reality they just learned the skills like everyone else.

      I live in an area with a high Brazilian population (Boston metro-west area in Massachusetts) and this really helps explain why most of the Brazillian-owned pizza shops also have various middle eastern dishes on their menus, and the presence of lots of greek-owned pizza shops in the state as well probably adds to that trend.

      Lebanese cuisine has a huge vegetarian and vegan dish collection. Also, every meat dish almost always has a vegetarian or vegan version. For example, kibbi is a really meat based dish. However, there is a potato (vegetarian) and pumpkin version (vegan). The reason was because being highly dense in Christians, traditionally there was a alot of fasting days where meat was banned.

      I grew up eating Masabcha all my life (the first dish he made). It's one of my favorite dishes to eat bar-none and I eat it everyday when I'm back in the middle east.
      The way he shows how to make it is aaaaaight, but it results in a disappointing dish (and I've had thousands of these).
      A way way better way to make it is - pre-mix the raw tahini with LOTS of lemon juice, salt and the cooked-chickpeas water, untill you get a consistency of heavy cream, or maybe SLIGHTLY thicker. Then mix that with cooked chickpeas in a metal bowl and double boil it for a minute or two, all while mixing.
      Then take it off the boil, an serve with olive oil, cumin, paprika, and Tatbila (a mix of smashed hot peppers, pickled hot peppers, and lemon juice) on top.
      This dish is about texture as much as it's about flavor. And this method makes for a way better texture.

    I'm from Lebanon and I'm glad you're doing an episode about Lebanese food. One thing to remember is that a Lebanese breakfast typically consists of an entire spread: jam (preferably homemade), olives, labneh with olive oil, ful with khudra (fresh vegetables), pickles, tea or coffee, fried eggs, a few cheeses, manaeesh, etc. etc. And lots of bread (pita, khubz saj...). It's basically a meze table with an emphasis on breakfast foods.
    Now unfortunately I do have to point out some issues with your video: First, the ful mudammas varies from region to region in Lebanon; some regions add chickpeas, others do not (it's a Christian versus Muslim thing; God only knows why). However, they will always add garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil and serve with the khudra, which 99.99999% of the time includes fresh mint (and a lot of it). then, the sauce of the fatteh includes garlic and is heavy on the yogurt. They will top the fatteh with fried pine nuts or fried almonds--almonds are cheaper, but some prefer them regardless. And eggs are typically fried in olive oil or ghee (samneh; it looks like vegetable oil on video). If somebody fries eggs in vegetable oil, it is typically a cost-driven decision. And, finally, cumin is used very sparingly in Lebanese cuisine; its use is a marker of Syrian cuisine (especially the region around Aleppo). BTW, Anthony Rahayel's channel is titled "No Garlic No Onions" precisely because it is so unusual for a Lebanese person to not like those two ingredients (or, in his case, I think he's allergic).
    Sorry to be critical of this episode. Most of your videos are very enjoyable and educational, and I've learned a lot watching them.

    If you don't want to fry or bake the bread, you can toast it in a panini grill or over a gas stove directly over the fire. Comes out even crispier than when fried and lighter. But fried is definitely tastier. :P
