Delicious Hummus made with Shiitake powder

Guanylate in dried Shiitake has the effect of strengthening the other ingredients' Umami taste and creating a delicious flavor. This means you can reduce the usual amount of salt by a third. Boiling chickpeas increases their weight by around 2.2 times.
Common toppings:
pumpkin and sunflower seeds; pine kernels; olives.
Eaten with:
pitta bread; rye bread; vegetables; tortilla.
Zen monks found Forest-grown Shiitake is the best Umami enhancer for Vegan Cuisine more than 1000-years ago in Japan. The drying and rehydrating process of Shiitake produces "Guanylate," a natural Umami energizer. Guanylate amplifies the Umami taste of all foods.
Unlike Dried Porcini, Shiitake can enhance the Umami taste of your cooking without adding a mushroom flavor.
Tips and tricks:
Adding a little water to Shiitake powder and waiting 10 minutes before using, maximizes 3x the Umami Flavor! One dry Tbsp equals one pre-soaked tsp, the same Umami boosting power. The drying and rehydrating process of Shiitake produces "Guanylate," a natural Umami energizer. Guanylate amplifies the Umami taste of all foods.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Quickly wash the chickpeas and soak overnight in at least three times as much water as peas.
- 2
Adding up to three times the amount of water, add the bay leaf and bring to the boil on a high heat. Then simmer on a low heat for about 30 minutes until the chickpeas are soft.
- 3
Drain the chickpeas in a colander (cooked weight 300g). Set aside most of the water. Set aside a few chickpeas for garnishing later.
- 4
Taking the dried Shiitake you have grated to a powder, add it to the water you boiled the chickpeas in.
- 5
Blend the cooked chickpeas in a mixer for around two minutes until smooth.
- 6
Add the chickpea water, tahini, garlic, and lemon juice, and blend for around one minute.
- 7
While blending in the mixer, add olive oil little by little, and use the chickpea water to adjust consistency. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- 8
Place in a dish and use the back of a spoon to create a swirl pattern. Garnish with the chickpeas you set aside earlier.
- 9
To finish, add topping. Drizzle to taste with olive oil.

Classic hummus (sun dried tomato & pesto) Classic hummus (sun dried tomato & pesto)
The leftover bean juice can be used to add moisture. I used 2 tablespoons basil pesto, 1/4 cup Sun dried tomatoes chopped small, throw a handful of garbanzo beans on there and drizzle the Sun dried tomato oil to finish. 😋 I also have a recipe to prepare the garbanzo beans from dried it tastes so much better to use beans that you've cooked yourself.
