TAHINI CAROB SHAKE (GLUTEN & DAIRY FREE)



Tahini Carob Shake (Gluten & Dairy Free) image

Yummy, yummy and pretty healthy too. With ingredients both used in Cypriot and Greek cooking. The scientific name of the carob tree is 'Ceratonia siliqua' derived from the Greek word 'keration' which means horn as the shape of the pod itself. In Cyprus, another common name is 'terratsi', a word that is probably derived from its Latin scientific name, Ceratonia. Carob is also referred to as St John's bread following the legend that St' John the Baptist was feeding on the pods of this tree while in the desert. I made this up when I wanted the taste of Carob in a cold drink that was also dairy free.

SWEET BANANA-CAROB SHAKE



Sweet Banana-Carob Shake image

I invented this one morning when I was just dying to combine these ingredients... worked very well, I must say. It's best if you give it 1/2 hour or so in the freezer so it gets more like ice cream than a thick drink.

Yield 2 cups, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 medium bananas, frozen
1 cup cold vanilla-flavored soymilk or 1 cup plain soymilk
1 tablespoon carob powder, sifted
4 soft dates (I used Parnoosh dates)

Steps:

  • If dates have been refrigerated, warm them a bit in the microwave, to make softer and easier to blend.
  • Slice the frozen bananas, this helps out your blender :-).
  • Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender, and blend till very smooth (you'll have visible flecks of date skin but who cares).
  • Pour into 2 mugs and let them sit in the freezer for 20-60 minutes.

TAHINI AND CAROB MOLASSES (DIBS KHAROUB U TAHINEH)



Tahini and Carob Molasses (Dibs Kharoub U Tahineh) image

Move over peanut butter. It's going to take five seconds to open the jars, pour the carob syrup and tahini on a plate and mix them with a spoon, then quickly slather some on bread or... The Carob bean was once known as "Cyprus Black Gold" and old Carob warehouses are still seen today along the northern coast of Northern Cyprus and Kyrenia Harbour. In those days the lucrative crop was exported. Today the Cypriot people make the nutritious syrup called "Pekmez" which is used to make a delicious spread when mixed with tahini (sesame seed paste). The visitor has the opportunity to visit a traditional, Turkish Cypriot village on the southern slopes of the Kyrenia Mountains and help with the Carob harvest and learn how to make "Pekmez". Found recipe on a couple of sites http://www.tasteofbeirut.com & http://invisiblevoices.wordpress.com
