Yes, I was very sneaky…. Lol!<BR/><BR/>Manuela – Thank you, and also thanks for hosting.<BR/><BR/>valentinA – Thanks. I actually have a quarter frozen….<BR/><BR/>Lydia Hamre – All the best! ;-)<BR/><BR/>Susan (Food Blogga) – I think so too. :-)<BR/><BR/>Shaun – This bread is truly easy to make. As I said in my post, I’ll have to increase the amount of cumin next time, or maybe use ground freshly toasted cumin seeds instead. <BR/><BR/>Amanda – It is a good bread for a light lunch with salad. Due to the protein in chickpeas, it’s makes for a well-rounded bread. <BR/><BR/>Toni – Oh, you made me laugh. All the best with chickpeas. I have a feeling that your meat man will like it. This bread recipe is so easy to make, let me know what you think of it when you make it. <BR/><BR/>Rosa – I think using chickpea flour is a great idea. I always have chickpeas in my pantry, but not chickpea flour even though I used to use it often when I was in Singapore. <BR/><BR/>Susan (Wild Yeast) – Thanks for dropping by. Chickpeas are a wonderful addition to bread, do give it a try. <BR/><BR/>Lavaterra - Thanks for your comment. I hope that you will enjoy this bread. <BR/><BR/>ostwestwind – You’re welcome! :-)Nora B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04360757422555317095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6398592642206432605.post-19341591227425519452007-12-05T21:32:00.000+11:002007-12-05T21:32:00.000+11:00A great idea to use chickpeas!

Any bread with cumin rocks, but I have to say that your inclusion of pink peppercorn is intriguing.

I had it with a Moroccan veg soup (store bought) for lunch yesterday.<BR/><BR/>Katie - Yes, they will never know... ;-)<BR/><BR/>Helen - Thank you. That's a good idea!<BR/><BR/>Eva - Thanks! The pattern made it easier to break off the bread. I used the pink peppercorn that you gave me. Now that you have cumin in your pantry, you can also use it in this bread. As for BBD#4, you have till Dec 1st to post it.<BR/><BR/>Tigerfish - I do too, usually with some butter! In this case, olive oil :-)<BR/><BR/>Wendy - I've aso responded to you question on your blog:<BR/>To make buns: Be sure to place them close together when you are shaping it so it becomes like a “batch buns" (i.e. they should touch each other after the 2nd rising). This keeps them moist. Under bake them (i.e. take them out of the oven while they are still pale but firm) and after cooling on a wire rack, you can freeze them. When you require the buns, stick them straight into a preheated oven till they turn golden brown. From my experience, this method of baking and freezing works for most breads/buns. Hope that helps.<BR/><BR/>East Meet West - Thank you!<BR/><BR/>Kate - Surprisingly, it didn't taste like humus at all. Maybe if I added tahini instead of olive oil, and maybe even some garlic powder instead of cumin, I could call it humus and peppercorn bread! :-) You've given me a great idea.<BR/><BR/>Deb - I did a little victory lap around him when he ate two pieces of the bread ;-) 2 tspn was what I used and it was not noticeable. I would increase the cumin. Cumin goes so well with chickpeas, I think.Nora B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04360757422555317095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6398592642206432605.post-23023718866702369202007-11-06T05:23:00.000+11:002007-11-06T05:23:00.000+11:00Yes, you go Nora!!!
