    ALASTAIR LITTLE'S HUMMUS

    Brindisa is very excited to be able to share the famous hummus recipe by chef Alastair Little. The big secret? Using Navarrico chickpeas! 

    A note from Alastair

    The Spanish grow and dry some of the best pulses in the world and the best of these come from the province of Navarra. The eponymously named company El Navarrico cook and bottle the best of the best. In other words, no one create this kind of quality in jarred beans. If you take a common, rather humdrum and ubiquitious dish like hummus but make it with these chickpeas, a decent tahini paste, fresh lemon juice and a good olive oil, the results will be revolutionary. 

    I promise you, it is so much better than a shop bought hummus. So much so that it almost constitutes as a completely different dish.
