RECIPE | Summer Fresh Roasted Garlic Hummus Sesame Noodles & WIN our GIVEAWAY!

We told you about our love for SummerFresh's wide range of hummus when we made a visit to their headquarters last year. This time around, though our post is to show you how hummus can be used in a super quick and easy recipe that isn't necessarily using hummus in the typical form of dips and spreads.  Instead, I decided to use the hummus as a sauce to one of my all time favourite sesame noodle recipe! Introducing Monica's Roasted Garlic Hummus Sesame Noodles! We also have a giveaway for Summerfresh products too.


Roasted Garlic has to be my favourite hummus amongst the other delicious flavours just because I'm a huge fan of it - yes it gives me garlic breath but... come on... let me live a little ;)

Here's a super easy recipe that literally took me less than 30 minutes from start to finish. It's a light and delicious meal idea that is still foodporn worthy as well as being drool worthy.



Ingredients:
3/4 cup of Summer Fresh roasted garlic hummus (I used 3 packets from the 4 pack)
1/4 cup of chicken or vegetable stock
2 tablespoon of rice vinegar
2 tablespoon for soy sauce
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
spaghettini or angel hair pasta
1/2 cup of sesame seeds, toasted
4 little bundles of scallion, chopped
a handful of sliced shitake mushrooms (or any other mushroom)


1. Boil water and cook the spaghettini for about 5 minutes. Don't overcook it as it's a cold dish, al dente will work the best. Once cooked, drain and leave on the side.

2. As the pasta is cooking, add the chicken stock, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil & hummus into a large bowl and mix well together.

2. Once the sauce is ready, add the pasta into the bowl and mix well.
Leave for 10 minutes to cool.

3. Last step already, add the sesame seeds, scallions and mushroom with the noodles on a serving plate. And, there you have it! Bon Appetit! 

Easy, right?

REVIEW | Light Cafe

We find Baldwin Village to be a street in Toronto that is ever growing. You'll never know what to expect in terms of businesses that will pop up! Not to mention it's diverse food culture including gelato, ramen, Italian, Filipino food and so much more. It doesn't surprise us at all that Light Cafe decided to take residence on Baldwin.  I have traveled quite extensively through Asia and can say with confidence that Light Cafe looks exactly like a cafe you would find in Taiwan. Not only is it spacious inside, I love the minimalist decor inside which provides a calming atmosphere. I could see myself sitting at the cafe for hours (within reason haha) and getting some work done.  The first thing that we noticed and I'm sure many of you will as well - is the living wall. I don't think I've ever been to a restaurant where there was a living wall but I've always wanted one of my own. With the natural sunlight coming in with the wall, it's the perfect place to f...

RECIPE | Alokozay Tea - Cinnamon tea infused panna cotta

Matcha tea has been a long time favourite when making any type of dessert and now more recently, it's expanded to other teas such as Chai or Early Grey. We decided to try making a panna cotta using cinnamon tea from  Alokozay Tea.    If you're looking to buy it in a store, try the international food section in Metro, Bulk Barn, Food Basics, or Adonis. If all else fails, do what we did and order it directly from their website. The website is extremely easy to navigate and you can get free shipping if you spend $39 or more.  Customer service was amazing and replied to my emails within the same day! Click here to buy the tea online.  Panna Cotta is a pretty straight forward dessert to make but it never fails to impress at dinner parties where you can serve them in individual ramekins. Ingredients - 2 Alokozay cinnamon tea bags - 3/4 cup half and half cream -1/2 cup 2% milk - 2 tbsp sugar - 1 tsp gelatin -fruits of your choice  Method: 1. Mix the gelatin with ...
