Okay, yes baking is my thing but a while ago I used to make a lot of hummus and the story behind it is simply this: I love the idea of hummus I just hate the one that comes from the shops so I made my own. I always found the one from the shops tastes like sludge and doesn't have a great texture to it. I'd like a little bit more flexibility in my hummus and so - I give you my secret recipe for creating great tasting, spicy hummus with very little effort.

Chongqing – A Renowned City of Chinese Cuisine
Known as the Mountain City, Chongqing’s cuisine is steeped in the bold, unrestrained spirit of the jianghu (a world of martial arts, wanderers, and unwritten codes). Steam rises from noodle stalls on stone steps, the rich aroma of beef tallow wafts from hot pot restaurants in hidden alleys, and charcoal fires crackle under grilled fish stands at night markets. These three iconic dishes – Chongqing Xiaomian (Spicy Noodles), Chongqing Mala Hot Pot, and Wanzhou Grilled Fish – are the culinary totems of Chongqing. With numbing spice (mala) as their soul and fresh, fragrant flavors as their backbone, they use the most humble ingredients to paint a vivid portrait of the Mountain City’s vibrant, down-to-earth charm.

No, I don't really like cinnamon. But I do like Cinnamoroll. If you don't know who or what that is, then check this out below.
