Notes

  • For silky hummus, start blending tahini with lemon juice before adding chickpeas, garlic, and salt. Add ice-cold water gradually to reach your desired texture. To keep tzatziki thick and scoopable, strain the yogurt and squeeze excess moisture from the cucumber, or remove its seeds. Allow the chicken to brown thoroughly before turning to develop a flavorful crust. When cooking rice, rinse it under cold water till clear to remove starch, then simmer covered in boiling salted water for 15-20 minutes until absorbed. Let it sit covered off heat for 5 minutes before fluffing.
