The crops are so promising that the United Nations deemed 2016 the \u003ca href=\"https://www.crops.org/iyp\">Year of Pulses\u003c/a> to expand interest in these ancient foods and their potential to help solve dueling modern-day conundrums: hunger and soil depreciation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some American farmers were already well on their way to embracing pulses, seeing the role they could play in improving soil health and setting the stage for better harvests of cash crops like wheat.

Soybeans are actually quite unique, and it is their particular protein and fat proportions that allow their milk to be curdled and separated just like cheese.

Because every type of bean has a slightly different starch content, I’ve written this recipe to use a flexible amount of cornstarch. You may need to experiment a bit to find your perfect proportions.

Chickpeas, for example, have quite a bit of starch in them, and their milk will turn to a thick custard on its own.

Cannellini tofu is more jelly-like than chickpea tofu, for example, and they’ll all be less firm than traditional soy tofu. If you’d like to cook them, I’d highly recommend using a non-stick skillet and a gentle hand.

Because every type of bean has a slightly different starch content, I’ve written this recipe to use a flexible amount of cornstarch. You may need to experiment a bit to find your perfect proportions.

Transfer the beans to a blender and cover with the water. Blend until very smooth, about 1 minute. You should no longer be able to see any little bits of bean and the mixture should be slightly foamy.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Place a strainer over a large bowl or pot.

Bring the milk to a low simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Reduce the heat as low as it will go. Ladle out about a cup of the milk out into a large bowl. Sift the cornstarch over the milk in the bowl and whisk it in until smooth. Pour the cornstarch-milk mixture into the pot with the remaining milk and whisk until smooth. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until the bean mixture turns extremely thick and pulls away from the sides of the pot, 30 seconds to 1 minute. If the mixture does not thicken up, sift in additional cornstarch, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it does.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Transfer the tofu mixture to a loaf pan measuring about 9 by 5 inches (smaller loaf pans will work as well; your tofu will be thicker) and smooth the top as best you can. Let the tofu cool completely.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Flip the cooled tofu out onto a cutting board (it should slide right out) and cut into squares.

The blog features recipes, reviews and recommendations for \u003cem>hummusiya\u003c/em>, or hummus joints.

But no. As long as colonization continues, as long as occupation continues, then hummus is not going to solve it.\" Many of the Palestinian hummus makers we spoke with expressed similar sentiments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Jawdat Ibrahim has a vision -- a kitchen vision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ibrahim grew up in poverty in Abu Gosh, an Arab living in an Arab village in Israel. He came to America in his early 20s with just a quarter in his pocket, then won a $23 million lottery in 1973 in Chicago and returned to his village in Israel to open his hummus restaurant. \"We broke the Guinness world record, but to make hummus is not the issue. To put people together, that is the main thing. People talk about blood and killing, and I want to take it to a different way,\" he says. \"People can talk about the Middle East about nice things, not killing and shooting.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Hummus Wars continue.

The blog features recipes, reviews and recommendations for \u003cem>hummusiya\u003c/em>, or hummus joints. There's a community around hummus, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Musleh -- the Palestinian woman who has been showing us around Ramallah — is far from taken with the subculture that Galili and many Israelis are feeding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Hummus, unfortunately, has become in the category of fast foods,\" Musleh says. \"But actually in [the Arab world] and all of Palestine, hummus is a Friday honorable breakfast. The father wakes up in the morning, makes hummus, makes food, invites all his daughters and daughters-in-law and sons. It's a way to get together in the morning of a Friday, when the family wants to throw all their worries and problems away.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>'Food Is Maybe The Only Thing That Gets People To Sit Together'\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>As Musleh drives us back to Jerusalem, back toward the checkpoint, she explains, \"there's usually congestion, because there's the refugee camp on left, a village called Qalandia on the right, and there's \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=126000690\">no man's land, Kufr Aqab\u003c/a>. You have 130,000 people using one road.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we get closer, we notice the rug merchants and food vendors who have set up makeshift businesses along the crawling route. \"I never think of eating breakfast on days when I have to go through the checkpoint,\" Musleh says, \"because, look, there's a kebab stand and there's vendors selling \u003cem>ka'ak,\u003c/em> the bread with sesame and \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2013/06/11/190672515/zaatar-a-spice-mix-with-biblical-roots-and-brain-food-reputation\">za'atar\u003c/a>.\" These vendors do a big business. \"Because you're stressed, you need something. You could get shot. The checkpoint could close. You could get a gas bomb. Suddenly you're not a human being. The kitchen of the checkpoint is really crucial to connect people together as human beings,\" Musah says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in a cab in Tel Aviv, we notice the tattoo on our taxi driver, David Varon, and ask, \"What does it say?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\" 'No fear,' \" he says. \"Some people are afraid to live in a country where there is so much blood and wars and conflict over thousands of years. You cannot live in fear in Israel.\" Because, he adds, \"this conflict is about religion, and it will not be over until religion is over.\" He drives, and continues, \"Hummus and falafel — food is maybe the only thing that gets people to sit together.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the hummus makers at the \u003cem>hummusiyat\u003c/em> we visited in Israel -- Lena's in Jerusalem, Abu Hassam in Tel Aviv, Hummus Said in Akko -- echoed Varon's thoughts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Dafna Hirsh from the Open University of Israel isn't buying it. \"This kind of approach says, 'Oh, if we eat together, peace will come through the stomach.' But no. As long as colonization continues, as long as occupation continues, then hummus is not going to solve it.\" Many of the Palestinian hummus makers we spoke with expressed similar sentiments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Jawdat Ibrahim has a vision -- a kitchen vision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ibrahim grew up in poverty in Abu Gosh, an Arab living in an Arab village in Israel. He came to America in his early 20s with just a quarter in his pocket, then won a $23 million lottery in 1973 in Chicago and returned to his village in Israel to open his hummus restaurant. \"We broke the Guinness world record, but to make hummus is not the issue. To put people together, that is the main thing. People talk about blood and killing, and I want to take it to a different way,\" he says. \"People can talk about the Middle East about nice things, not killing and shooting.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Hummus Wars continue. But, Ibrahim says, \"Nobody gets hurt with this war.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Recipe: Basic Hummus\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2012/10/15/162805706/jerusalem-a-love-letter-to-food-and-memories-of-home\">This recipe\u003c/a> comes courtesy of British-Israeli chef and restaurateur \u003ca href=\"http://www.ottolenghi.co.uk/\">Yotam Ottolenghi\u003c/a>, who grew up in Jewish West Jerusalem, and his business partner and co-chef Sami Tamimi, who grew up in the Muslim neighborhoods of East Jerusalem.

Cook for about three minutes, stirring constantly. Add the water and bring to a boil. Cook, skimming off any foam and any skins that float to the surface. The chickpeas will need to cook for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the type and freshness, sometimes even longer. Once done, they should be very tender, breaking up easily when pressed between your thumb and finger, almost but not quite mushy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Drain the chickpeas. You should have roughly 3 2/3 cups now. Place the chickpeas in a food processor and process until you get a stiff paste. Then, with the machine sill running, add the tahini paste, lemon juice, garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Finally, slowly drizzle in the ice water and allow it to mix for about five minutes, until you get a very smooth and creamy paste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Transfer the hummus to a bowl, cover the surface with plastic wrap, and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

The dish is green garbanzo soup, a real seasonal palate-stunner. I invented it last weekend, when my girlfriend and I elected to have some friends over for dinner. Since we both were going to be busy during the day preceding the occasion, we shopped and did much of the cooking the night before. After drinking a few beers at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/500-club-san-francisco\">500 Club\u003c/a> and watching the wurst (Germany) come up short against the hams (Spain), I strolled down to \u003ca href=\"http://www.biritemarket.com/\">Bi-Rite\u003c/a> to rustle up ingredients: for the soup, a huge bag of garbanzos in their fuzzy green shells, a quart of chicken stock, a head of garlic, a leek, and way more hazelnuts than I needed. I had butter and good olive oil at home. I’d also stumbled across a few threads of tired-looking saffron tucked away in a cupboard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was all set. We had lots of dishes to prepare, of course, but the night before I was focused on crafting an enticing, verdant elixir with which to prime the appetites of our guests -- prior to the impending assault of assorted cheeses, breads, olives, pickled peppers, octopus and tomato salad, roasted corn relish, watermelon with salt, and two bastardized briks -- one with ancho-and-roasted tomato-stewed heritage pork, currants, and cilantro, and the other with morels, thyme, feta, beet greens, chard, and kale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From green garlic shoots, to slender asparagus, to sweet early-season cherry tomatoes, I have, with regard to the realm of edible vegetation, a tendency to prize fresh young things. When I saw the green garbanzos nestled like weird little grubs in a big basket in the Bi-Rite produce case, I was consumed by the desire to harness their youth, pea-like flavor, and agreeably grassy pallor, and express them fully and vigorously in a simple yet well-calibrated dish. To work such magic, I began by chopping the leek and letting it slowly fall apart in a pot glazed over with a half-stick of butter. Meanwhile, I roasted four unpeeled cloves of garlic on a hot, dry cast-iron skillet, just the way \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Bayless\">Rick Bayless\u003c/a> taught me. When the peels were flaking off, the exterior blackened in places, and the cloves delectably squishy to the touch, I turned off the burner, let them cool, peeled them, and stirred them into the pot with the creamy, cooked-down leeks. I added the stock, about a quart of water, and the saffron. Then, I realized I had forgotten to separate the beans from their pods. Cursing, I turned off the other burner, grabbed the bag of beans, and got to work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About an hour, two beers, and two-and-a-half episodes of \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgDaVLCaBzQ\">Eastbound and Down\u003c/a> later, I shelled the last bean and headed back to the kitchen. When I heated up the pot again, I realized I’d severely misjudged the amount of beans I’d need. Each relatively large pod contains just one or two tiny pellets. I would have required a wheelbarrow to haul the quantity of beans I truly needed, and an entire television series to make shelling so many bearable. Cursing, I flung open the fridge. I would have to improvise. I spied half a head of cauliflower. The beans would, I thought, dance prettily with such fair white curds as a partner. I hacked the cauliflower up rather brutally and tossed it in the pot with the beans for a steamy dip. Fifteen minutes later, after a nice simmer, everything was tender. I turned off the heat and added salt and pepper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s when I started -- as \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Chappelle\">Dave Chappelle \u003c/a> would say -- f**king up. Using a small, lidless blender better suited to smoothie-making instead of a food processor (ours fell prey to mold a few months ago), I tried to do the soup in four or five very small batches, covering the top with a plate. This was happening after 11:00 p.m., around the time I become capable of doing nothing besides sleeping, drinking, or watching movies requiring little intellectual investment. I should not have been cooking really, much less handling hot liquids. I accidentally pressed the “liquify” button instead of “puree”, and a surge of pale green came bubbling up, rattling the plate, sending a steaming froth cascading out and across the table and floor. I screamed like a small spoiled child, clutching my seared right forearm with my left hand, also incidentally very badly burned. Sickly drops flecked the wall next to the blender. I suddenly realized the front of my shirt was hot, wet, and green. Cursing, I dived for a towel. After mopping up what I could see in my exhausted haze, I limped off to bed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I awoke to find a trail of ants the size and shape of a patch of body hair churning around the area of floor I’d soiled with soup and failed to properly clean. On the other hand, once strained, the soup -- now cool and the appealing color of green tea ice cream -- tasted fantastic -- rich and lively, with depth provided by the roasted garlic and the chicken stock, texture courtesy of butter and my hapless blender, the beans and cauliflower intertwined in a nutty, herbaceous, harmonious embrace. Later that night, we would serve it in tiny to-go espresso cups with toasted hazelnut crumbles, finely chopped parsley, and neat drizzles of olive oil. I botched the first cup by accidentally dumping in about a shot or two of oil -- and cursed -- but the rest turned out fine -- once I let the lady handle the pouring. Out in the dining room, conversation paused. Everyone was quiet, sipping away. My hand and forearm throbbed a little bit. I was sweating under my apron. So much shelling, so much spilling, so much cursing -- and yet the soup managed to hold. It was good, the way I’d wanted it to be. Things don’t always fall apart.

The dish is green garbanzo soup, a real seasonal palate-stunner. I invented it last weekend, when my girlfriend and I elected to have some friends over for dinner. Since we both were going to be busy during the day preceding the occasion, we shopped and did much of the cooking the night before. After drinking a few beers at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/500-club-san-francisco\">500 Club\u003c/a> and watching the wurst (Germany) come up short against the hams (Spain), I strolled down to \u003ca href=\"http://www.biritemarket.com/\">Bi-Rite\u003c/a> to rustle up ingredients: for the soup, a huge bag of garbanzos in their fuzzy green shells, a quart of chicken stock, a head of garlic, a leek, and way more hazelnuts than I needed. I had butter and good olive oil at home. I’d also stumbled across a few threads of tired-looking saffron tucked away in a cupboard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was all set. We had lots of dishes to prepare, of course, but the night before I was focused on crafting an enticing, verdant elixir with which to prime the appetites of our guests -- prior to the impending assault of assorted cheeses, breads, olives, pickled peppers, octopus and tomato salad, roasted corn relish, watermelon with salt, and two bastardized briks -- one with ancho-and-roasted tomato-stewed heritage pork, currants, and cilantro, and the other with morels, thyme, feta, beet greens, chard, and kale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From green garlic shoots, to slender asparagus, to sweet early-season cherry tomatoes, I have, with regard to the realm of edible vegetation, a tendency to prize fresh young things. When I saw the green garbanzos nestled like weird little grubs in a big basket in the Bi-Rite produce case, I was consumed by the desire to harness their youth, pea-like flavor, and agreeably grassy pallor, and express them fully and vigorously in a simple yet well-calibrated dish. To work such magic, I began by chopping the leek and letting it slowly fall apart in a pot glazed over with a half-stick of butter. Meanwhile, I roasted four unpeeled cloves of garlic on a hot, dry cast-iron skillet, just the way \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Bayless\">Rick Bayless\u003c/a> taught me. When the peels were flaking off, the exterior blackened in places, and the cloves delectably squishy to the touch, I turned off the burner, let them cool, peeled them, and stirred them into the pot with the creamy, cooked-down leeks. I added the stock, about a quart of water, and the saffron. Then, I realized I had forgotten to separate the beans from their pods. Cursing, I turned off the other burner, grabbed the bag of beans, and got to work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About an hour, two beers, and two-and-a-half episodes of \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgDaVLCaBzQ\">Eastbound and Down\u003c/a> later, I shelled the last bean and headed back to the kitchen. When I heated up the pot again, I realized I’d severely misjudged the amount of beans I’d need. Each relatively large pod contains just one or two tiny pellets. I would have required a wheelbarrow to haul the quantity of beans I truly needed, and an entire television series to make shelling so many bearable. Cursing, I flung open the fridge. I would have to improvise. I spied half a head of cauliflower. The beans would, I thought, dance prettily with such fair white curds as a partner. I hacked the cauliflower up rather brutally and tossed it in the pot with the beans for a steamy dip. Fifteen minutes later, after a nice simmer, everything was tender. I turned off the heat and added salt and pepper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s when I started -- as \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Chappelle\">Dave Chappelle \u003c/a> would say -- f**king up. Using a small, lidless blender better suited to smoothie-making instead of a food processor (ours fell prey to mold a few months ago), I tried to do the soup in four or five very small batches, covering the top with a plate. This was happening after 11:00 p.m., around the time I become capable of doing nothing besides sleeping, drinking, or watching movies requiring little intellectual investment. I should not have been cooking really, much less handling hot liquids. I accidentally pressed the “liquify” button instead of “puree”, and a surge of pale green came bubbling up, rattling the plate, sending a steaming froth cascading out and across the table and floor. I screamed like a small spoiled child, clutching my seared right forearm with my left hand, also incidentally very badly burned. Sickly drops flecked the wall next to the blender. I suddenly realized the front of my shirt was hot, wet, and green. Cursing, I dived for a towel. After mopping up what I could see in my exhausted haze, I limped off to bed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I awoke to find a trail of ants the size and shape of a patch of body hair churning around the area of floor I’d soiled with soup and failed to properly clean. On the other hand, once strained, the soup -- now cool and the appealing color of green tea ice cream -- tasted fantastic -- rich and lively, with depth provided by the roasted garlic and the chicken stock, texture courtesy of butter and my hapless blender, the beans and cauliflower intertwined in a nutty, herbaceous, harmonious embrace. Later that night, we would serve it in tiny to-go espresso cups with toasted hazelnut crumbles, finely chopped parsley, and neat drizzles of olive oil. I botched the first cup by accidentally dumping in about a shot or two of oil -- and cursed -- but the rest turned out fine -- once I let the lady handle the pouring. Out in the dining room, conversation paused. Everyone was quiet, sipping away. My hand and forearm throbbed a little bit. I was sweating under my apron. So much shelling, so much spilling, so much cursing -- and yet the soup managed to hold. It was good, the way I’d wanted it to be. Things don’t always fall apart. The process of creating something so simple and easy might have been unnecessarily tortured and chaotic, but the result, blessedly, was pure and refined, even serene -- swirling green peace in the bottom of a soup spoon.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/15116/spilling-my-soup-a-recipe","authors":["5060"],"categories":["bayareabites_2695","bayareabites_1875","bayareabites_12"],"tags":["bayareabites_8256","bayareabites_2345","bayareabites_11123","bayareabites_14738","bayareabites_439"],"label":"bayareabites"}},"programsReducer":{"possible":{"id":"possible","title":"Possible","info":"Possible is hosted by entrepreneur Reid Hoffman and writer Aria Finger.
