This is a nut paté with herbs and garlic that smells and tastes delicious.
Ingredients Yield, one small bowl
2 cups walnuts, soaked 12 hours
2 teaspoons herb seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic
pinch pepper
2-6 tablespoons water
Preparation
Pour off the water from the walnuts, rinse and dry the nuts with a cloth or paper towel.
Grind the nuts in a coffee grinder and place in the blender. Add seasoning and 2 tablespoons of water and blend briefly. Add more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until it is a nice and creamy consistency (the nuts already contain water from the soaking).
Serving Suggestions
This is excellent with salads, as dip for vegetables or a spread on crispy wholegrain bread.
*Walnuts contain lots of omega-3 fatty acids.
