I caused a misunderstanding I guess... instead of "to ur friends" I should have said "to us." :lol:



With the present condition of my brain, it would not make any difference. :lol:

Thanks for the gesture Deniz. I was just about to PM you with a question, what's the English word for "kuru bakla"?

Selamlar, yesterday I bought a pack of "lupini beans" by mistake. They looked like bakla but were quite smaller. I did the same thing with bulgur, mistakenly bought couscous instead :lol: .

My wife uses couscous to make 'bulgur pilav'. I dont dare complain, though the difference with good cooking is negligible.

I never had, or do not remember having ever had lupin beans but do they taste like broad beans? Bakla/bagala have a distinctive taste.

Lupin beans
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Lupin Beans and a Portuguese beer.Lupin or Lupini Beans are yellow legume seeds of the lupinus genus plant, most commonly the Lupinus luteus or Yellow Lupin, and were once a common food of the Mediterranean basin and Latin America. Today they are primarially eaten as a pickled snack food.

1 Snack Food
2 History and distibution
2.1 Native America
3 Varieties of bean

[edit] Snack Food
Lupini Beans are commonly sold in a brine in jars (like olives and pickles) and can be eaten by making a small tear in the skin with your teeth and "popping" the seed directly into one's mouth, but can also be eaten with the skin on.

Searching for lupin beans, I see the Portugese beer which accompanies it.

Lupin beans are very popular with the Lebanese. They serve them as a small meze with drinks. They are served soaked in water and as you squeeze the yellowish skin the inside white bean pops out.
BTW, I don't think that beer with that name would go well in Turkey. :)
