You process any bean your little heart desires into a paste just as you can process garbanzo beans into hummus. Mexican cuisine is big on black beans flavored with lard in lieu of olive oil, and cumin instead of za'atar or sumac or whatever other Middle Eastern spice you manage to scrounge up at the spice market.
This paste is made from a can of white beans. White beans because I carelessly opened a can by mistake last night when I was going for a can of chick peas.
Bread.
Used ingredients that would go into a brioche:
* 1/2 Cup of milk
* 1 egg
* Tablespoon of Butter
Bread.
Used ingredients that would go into a brioche:
* 1/2 Cup of milk
* 1 egg
* Tablespoon of Butter
^^^ warmed in microwave to 125℉, added 1/2 teaspoon yeast.
* 1/2 teaspoon white sugar (yeast food)
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* handful of wheat grains run through coffee grinder into powder
* AP flour by the tablespoon to form a dough
What to do.
Mix dough, divide into thirds. Divide each third into thirds and form into patties like you intend squat little pizzas. Press into floured board and cover with plastic. Cover that with kitchen towel. Allow to rise. Fry till done. I like to keep a lid smaller than the pan so I can drizzle a small amount of water onto the lid and let it seep through the crack and steam the frying bread underneath. That way they're fried and slightly steamed simultaneously. Helps assure the insides of the bread is cooked.
Bean paste
* can of white beans
* processed with
* juice of 1/2 lime
* 1/4 Cup white wine
* any seasoning you have on hand.
Made mayonnaise again, just for this.
*goat cheese. Flavored goat cheese left over from the party. This stuff doesn't last. Goat cheese goes rank really fast. Therefore, it's something of a race to see if I can use it before it must be tossed.
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* handful of wheat grains run through coffee grinder into powder
