    Nice bread, some houmous and balsamic to dip it in (separately, of course), marinated olives and artichoke hearts, grilled courgette and tomatoes

        You have a good sense of houmous.

          I broke my arm in grade school and it has a kink in it now, everyone tells me it’s humerus

            They should tell you it’s kinky.

            That would be humorous.

      Don’t forget the weird cheese made from rice which, while it tastes a little funny, reminds you of the hearth around which your forefathers sat.

      I’ve never seen anyone spell hummus like that lol! Apparently that’s how they spell it in the UK?

        I am in the UK so that would make sense. Going solely off of wikipedia’s page on the romanisation of Arabic, I’d hazard a guess that the UK spelling came via French

          I never realised that it’s not from latin, but apparently the words hummus and humus have nothing to do with each other.

      How do you marinate an olive?

        garlic, capers, olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, basil, oregano, some giardiniera, pepperocini and a couple pickled onions.

        i recommend mostly “black” olives with a few green ones for the salt and a bit more color.

          Green ones with garlic and lemon juice are top notch though

              I do not, unfortunately. I had actually never heard of that sandwich before but it looks really good. I am vegetarian, though, so it’ll have to stay just looking good for me
