Food preferences

Recently, a friend forwarded a recipe for morning glory muffins. I was going through Seasonal recipes from the garden and came across another recipe of the muffins. What I learnt from the recipe comparision is that the person who sent the recipe to my friend does not like nutmeg, likes vanilla flavor, like salt less, oil more and likes sugar in pure form, seperate from shredded coconut.

It happened to be a colleague's bday today. I made the morning glory muffins and a cake from the same batter using the revipe in the book with 2/3 cup oil and only 1 cup sugar. One thing I appreciated about the making of this is the little mixing that I had to do. No need of electric blender. My husband appreciated the less sweet. Friends liked the nuts,raisins and apple in it.

I saw this split chickpea addition to it and wondered why I didnt think of it before. I know of a recipe with soaked split chickpea and onion curry (diced onions, but now I am thinking another recipe would be to give the special treatment to onions with a blend and then fried well - elevates any main ingredient even simple one like soaked split chickpea. oh no, now reimaging all the great food could have been if done well - thinking chole curry -- its like once you know a mistake and have tons and tons of papers, to go back and correct). In some months, when for religious reasons, people dont eat onion, t...
