adorable. 🤣🤣🤣

Lebanese food is A1. I LOVE Greek but Lebanese right there too. I'm neither Leb... or Greek but love the food and ppl. I study ppl , culture and food for fun as a hobby and find that we all are more alike than different, i mean most cultures or groups have flat breads, naan is my fav, greens, spices ect that are very similar just different because of the ingredients available. its crazy if you think about how much ppl are the same 😊. I dont know the name of the different hummus you speak of but i have had it and maybe because i first experience hummus in Arabic restaurants in the Detroit area im bias in that way that its better (Lebanese), but the Greeks have that sort of hummus too and its also really good. just slightly different almost unnoticeable.

God-Mode Incarnate sorry if I may have offered not being Greek but it was a traditional Greek restaurant I went to in Detroit area that had it and it looked and tastes like hummus to me but it was a different name I can’t remember. My point though is that we are all similar in our foods just region or techniques that very slightly to make a seemingly Hugh difference in the outcome. Hey bro, I may have been Greek in a past life because that’s my #1 food (overall) but some similar or comparable dishes I may fancy is all.

Akis didn't peel them.

I don't know exactly where it's from. But it's neither Turkish nor Greek. It's from middle east I think.

@QAOSbringer Greek olive oil which is you know.....made in Greece from Greek variety olives since Ancient times. It's called Greek Yogurt because the method of making this Yogurt which is by straining it, is native to Greece (στραγγιστό γιαούρτι). The first evidence of Yogurt was in Ancient Greece when it was called οξύγαλα (oxygala). The word Yogurt is borrowed etymology from Turkish. I've never heard anyone that is Greek refer to Tahini, Hummus, Spoon or Fork as Greek. I do know the Cyprus for years has trying to lay a regional claim to Hummus but not Greece.

Did you know the Greeks invented sex? Later the Italians invented it with women

i find greek olive oil actually tastes like olives. unlike that tasteless italian crap.

The traditional Greek Yogurt is called STRAGGISTO, which means Strained! In Antiquity the Greeks used the word OXYGALA for Yogurt. Yogurt is a turkic word imposed on the Greeks & not the original words they used for their Native Yogurts! 🇬🇷👍🏻

There is no Greek Fork or Greek Spoon. As for Greek "Hummus", it depends what you mean, Greeks make a Fave Dip as well with the Santorini Fava Split Dried Fava bean that English Speaking Greeks may call Greek Hummus for simplicity sake. There are more traditional versions as well in Greece. They have too many ways of making it! 😃 Greek Cuisine is the Best in the World! It is rated by FoodAtlas at #2 one single decimal point behind Italia. It has everything from Seafood, Pasta, Meat Dishes (including Pork which Muslims don’t eat), Vegetarian Dishes, Coffee Culture, Dips, Soups, Salads, etc! 🇬🇷👍🏻

+mmb8806 no... used peeled chcipeas

+angelmwdead οκ!

Recipe for tahini halva pleaseee

You cant break the sesame seeds at home. Tahini is not peanut butter. Plus it doesn't have oil and salt. It's one ingredient. Sesame seeds. You dont need to make it at home as long as the box writes one and only one ingredient. Unfortunately we cannot make everything at home. 😊 An expensive blender is not anywhere near a factory machine.

He's right actually. It will taste better if the skins are removed. My advice - make a big batch once a month cause hummus freezes well.

.you can skip that by buying a small kind...like the bulgarian kind then the skin almost completely dissolve while you cook it/ also i think that its better to let them cool before you put them in the mixer. texture wise and also coliform wise

I find no bitter taste from the skins, however removing them will give you a very creamy texture, well worth the extra effort!

yes... I know... :-) Usually I cannot be bothered

+Akis Kitchen Oh, that's fine. One of the reasons I don't make it very often is the hassle of trying to remove all of those little skins!

LOL yeah. I only make this once a month for that reason. Luckily this stuff freezes well so I make a large 1kg batch and freeze into weekly portions. It's not horrible if the skins are left on but it does taste better when the skins are removed.

@@akispetretzikisen I cannot imagine sitting around to remove chickpea skins one by one!!! how about the canned chickpea?

not so easy...

ofcourse!!!

Thanks for telling me!

you can, but freshly soaked are 10000000000times better.

+lclkm good idea!!!!

+lclkm I'm going to have to sneak this in to give it a try. ;) Thanks for the idea!

Use Turkish yoğurt instead of Greek yoghurt. Otherwise it will ne not tasty.

+Gregoriez VonXavier LMAO! I've been wondering similar things... Also what he eats in a normal day. I guess I've been watching too many physique competitors lately.

@@carolinefreak of course is EXTRA VIRGIN GREEK OLIVE OIL, lol

yes. we usually eat it as a side dish , its has a lot of protein. I use it in my salad, wraps, side dish, dipping my tortillas chips ... all kinds of uses! its delicious 😊

+Hello There oh really. thanks

+belitega I love having it as a dip with veggies. Pairs really well with pita and olives as well.

+carolinefreak for me Greek food is so new. I'm from Latin America and we don't usually eat this. thank you for the ideas.

+Branko Bojat its a glass bottle that he fills from the tap.

Just checked your website, and it is 150 ml. Love your channel.

yes i can

I wrote a list of all the ingredients now which I am going to buy

Sorry but tahini is Greek.

+Dionysia Theodorou what is it called in Greek then? Lol

+Zaher ταχίνι

+Dionysia Theodorou so it's Greek but it has an Arabic name? Come on don't go all mr Portokalos on me now. Not all things have Greek roots.

+Zaher sure, not all things have greek roots. But lots of things have. I'm glad you've watched mbfgw

+abbz4u try and use only the yellow bit and not the white...

+Akis Kitchen Thanks Akis

+Alex GodLikeKillerX όχι...

+Paul Baz i know its weird but actually it is posible

+Paul Baz why is that weird?

Akis Kitchen Liquids tend to be measured in mLs or litres? :D

He is just presenting a recipe he is not claming hummus as greek ,because its not of course. Its not a traditional dish here in Greece most people dont even know what it is and if they do, they only know it as an arabic dip.
