CHICK PEA

My hubby loves to eat hummous with bread and this is the first thing that he learns to make when he first came here. Hummous is a dipping made from chick pea and other spices and I think it is a Middle Eastern food because we usually had it at Arab Restaurant. It tastes good and I will definitely post it when we make one. Today I just feel like eating boiled chick pea. My late mother use to boil the chickpea and serve it as a snack. During that time, we never had chips or fries or Nachos or Kettle Chips at home. It is too expensive for us to buy. This is the first time I make boiled chickpea and it taste yummy....

HELLO WORLD

My first blog was created in September 2006 and it was named JOM MAKAN using the url http://hishamnor.blogspot.com. I've been neglected the blog until now when suddenly I had an urge to start blogging again and looking back at my old blog bring me down to memory lane. Unfortunately I've totally forgot my password and username and after few attempts and not to mention contacting the support group, I still can't access to that blog and updated it again.

I did not want that to deter my motivation to continue with blogging, so I've decided to create a new blog and hopefully this blog will continue together with my passion for food and cooking...BON APPETIT
