Just a brief note to tell you about an AMAZING spice I have come across; it's actually derived from a berry called 'Sumac.' It has a tangy lemony taste and goes amazingly well with seafood and poultry dishes!
Also is great with tofu, avocado and sea salt sandwiches made with yummy rye bread.
Here is an ace recipe for a Tofu and Bean Salad I made the other day.
- Heat some olive oil in a frying pan.
- Add chopped tofu, any sort of legume, (I used red kidney beans), add the sumac and a good sprinkle of salt and pepper.
- Chop some carrots, red onion, avocado, snow peas, and pretty much any other vegies you may have in your crisper!
- Pop them into a bowl and drizzle some extra virgin olive over them. Add a shake of white wine vinegar and then a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
- Now add the tofu and beans, a dollop of fresh hummus and stir though!
Yummy!
I bought my 'sumac' from http://www.fratellifresh.com.au/ in Potts Point.
In saying that, most good grocery shops should have it!
Enjoy...
