Learn to make Homemade Pan-Fried or Baked Falafel so authentic that your friends will swear you had it flown in from Lebanon. Whichever method you choose, its vibrant fresh herbs, punchy seasoning blend, and crispy-yet-tender texture will be the star of any sandwich or mezze board. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…
Hummus Fries with Spicy Tahini Dip
Hummus Fries with Spicy Tahini Dip. These fritters are made with chickpea flour and tahini for a crisp-exteriored snack with a custardy, hummus-like center. This recipe for Hummus Fries with Spicy Tahini Dip has also been featured on Serious Eats. The scribbled words “PANISSES – TECHNICALLY FRENCH FRIES” caught my eye at the food truck festival last…
Smoky Chipotle Pumpkin Hummus
This might sound strange coming from the girl who just posted a recipe for Loaded Pizza Nachos (and spent the entirety of the post passionately declaring her love for cheese-covered triangles), but my favorite food to make is actually healthy food.

They get this crackly, brownie-like crust on the top and bottom after baking, but stay extremely moist and almost fudgy in the center, sort of like the texture of…
Michael Solomonov’s Perfect Hummus Tehina
Put that Sabra back on the shelf because you are never going to buy prepackaged hummus again. I won’t even be sensitive with my assumptions here. You’re going to love this, for the same reasons that it’s been heralded as the best hummus on the east coast, been named Bon Appétit’s 2015 Best Dish of The…
Avocado, Chickpea, and Feta Fritters
At 1 AM last night, my world came crashing down. No, that’s not right. At 1 AM last night, my closet came crashing down. The shelves that had held my belongings for over a decade just gave up and gave out, and gave me a near-heart attack in the process. Those shelves were where I stored my…
