This comment is like one of those recipe reviews that gives 2 stars because they changed half the ingredients and it came out shit.
Lol. I overheard this exact scenario.
A white lady asks a middle eastern woman how to make humous properly, like what she brought for lunch.
The woman replies that you soak the chick peas, boil them, then pinch off the outer skin and just keep the pea, then roast the sesame seeds, and blend it all with garlic, oil, lemon, pepper, salt, etc.
The white lady says, You actually pinch the skin off every single chick pea?
Yes, if you want the smooth consistancy, rather than mealy/grainy texture.
White Lady:That sounds like too much work, I'll just leave the chick peas out of the recipe altogether.
lol I always change the ingredients because I know most recipes can have altered ingredients without issue. baking is another story.
I also wouldn't even leave a review, for anything. it's a pointless thing to do.
my food never comes out shit. following the recipes, especially online... that results in shit. a LOT of blog recipes are absolute garbage and need to be changed.. esp American ones. add 8lbs of butter, 7 cups of corn syrup, a drop of red food coloring and now you have your steak marinade. uhh, no thanks.
