Frequently asked questions about the vegetarian menu

How to make carrot hummus really creamy?

Cook the carrots until very tender and then thoroughly blend them with the chickpeas. If it's too thick, add a little water or olive oil until you achieve a smooth and spreadable texture.

What does carrot add to traditional hummus?

The carrot adds a subtle sweetness that balances the tahini, lemon, and spices. It also provides a more intense color and a particularly smooth texture when blended with the chickpeas.

How to make a creamy eggplant carbonara without using cream?

Mix the sauce with the hot pasta and add a little of the spaghetti cooking water. The starch helps bind the ingredients and create a creamier sauce without needing to add cream.

How to prevent eggplant from becoming oily in spaghetti carbonara?

Cut the eggplant into even cubes and cook until golden brown, controlling the amount of oil. Add more only if necessary, as the eggplant can easily absorb it.

What is the difference between homemade muesli and granola?

Muesli typically mixes cereal flakes, nuts, and dried fruit without needing to be baked, while granola is usually sweetened and baked until crunchy.

How to preserve homemade muesli so that it stays crunchy?

Store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from moisture. Add the milk or yogurt only when serving to best preserve its texture.
