HERB SPREAD

I made this vegetarian spread to show that you can make a tasty and low fat mix using only vegetables and green, fresh herbs. All herbs were alive and direct from our garden.

Chickpeas  was  cooked using  dried  beans and was the only ingredient that was boiled  . The green olives was only marinated in  salt and water  without additives.

Other ingredients like olive oil was Spanish Virgin Extra from nearby village called "Culebron"  pressed using ancient mechanical  "Almazara" method.

INGREDIENTS: CHICKPEAS
                             GREEN OLIVES WITHOUT STONES
                             RECENTLY PRESSED VIRGIN EXTRA OLIVE OIL
                             FRESH  PARSLEY LEAVES, AT LEAST HALF A LITER
                             OTHER HERBS: DILL, MINT  AND CELERY.

Chop the herbs into small pieces.  Put this mix in a pot and grind  well using "Bamix" and  adding same time olive oil in small amounts .

Last add the chickpeas and the olives and mix the paste till it is creamy spread.

This spread  contains  60% live green herb ingredients, rest is only marinated green olives and boiled chickpeas softened with Spanish additive free Virgin Extra Olive Oil.
