The chickpea is a legume of the family Fabaceae, subfamily
Faboideae. Its seeds are high in protein and is one of the earliest
cultivated legumes whose 7,500-year-old remains have been found in
the Middle East. Einat Mazor is a certified chef who studied at the
Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City and currently works as a
culinary consultant for restaurants and food companies. In
"Chickpeas: Sweet and Savory Recipes from Hummus to Dessert" Chef
Mazor has compiled a beautifully illustrated compendium of chickpea
oriented recipes for dishes that are as palate pleasing as they are
nutritious and appetite satisfying. The thoroughly 'kitchen cook
friendly' recipes range from Hummus Guacamole; Phyllo Triangles
Filled with Chickpeas & Cheese; Spicy Carrot & Chickpea Soup;
Veggie Burger; and Grilled Polenta with Mushroom Ragout; to Baked
Cauliflower Patties; Fish Burgers; Mediterranean Beef Stew;
Rosemary & Pumpkin Seed Bread; and Pine Nut Cracker. While
"Chickpeas: Sweet and Savory Recipes from Hummus to Dessert" is
certain to be an enduringly popular addition to family and
community library cookbook collections, it should be noted that it
is also available in a Kindle format ($10.99).
