Cooking instruction summary:

Round up your ingredients. Roughly chop some fresh parsley and set aside. Peel the sweet potatoes and evenly cube them. I cut each potato into half lengthwise and then each half into quarters. It is not important how you cut them as much as it is that the cubes are the same size so the potatoes cook evenly. Place a steamer insert or basket into a large pot and fill with just enough water so that it is about ½" below bottom of steamer. Toss in 1 to 2 tablespoons of kosher salt. Place potatoes in steamer. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover, reduce heat to medium low and cook 10 to 12 minutes, until potatoes are fork tender. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic cloves to bowl of food processor. Process until finely chopped. Add potatoes and process until smooth, slowly adding water as needed. Add all remaining ingredients except parsley and pulse until blended together. Transfer to a small pot and simmer on low until ready to serve. Serve with fresh chopped parsley and pita bread. Some additional serving ideas include as a side dish, as a spread in a wrap or sandwich, or as a dip for vegetables. I served this as a dip for pita and also as a bed for Spiced Grilled Shrimp and veggies. Enjoy!

Food Trivia

Odor is by far the most important contributor to the flavor of food. The contributions of taste, texture, and appearance are insignificant by comparison. Humans can distinguish an estimated 20,000 different odor qualities.

Food Joke

If you lived as a child in the 40's, 50's, 60's or 70's how did you survive? Looking back, it's hard to believe that we have lived as long as we have... As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags. Riding in the back of a pickup truck on a warm day was always a special treat. Our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paint. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors, or cabinets, and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets. We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle. Horrors! We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then rode down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times we learned to solve the problem. We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on. No one was able to reach us all day. No cell phones. Unthinkable. We played dodgeball and sometimes the ball would really hurt. We got cut and broke bones and broke teeth, and there were no lawsuits from these accidents. They were accidents. No one was to blame, but us. Remember accidents? We had fights and punched each other and got black and blue and learned to get over it. We ate cupcakes, bread and butter, and drank sugar soda but we were never overweight... we were always outside playing. We shared one grape soda with four friends, from one bottle and no one died from this. We did not have Playstations, Nintendo 64, X-Boxes, video games at all, 99 channels on cable,video tape movies, surround sound, personal cell phones, Personal Computers, Internet chat rooms ... we had friends. We went outside and found them. We rode bikes or walked to a friend's home and knocked on the door, or rung the bell or just walked in and talked to them. Imagine such a thing. Without asking a parent! By ourselves! Out there in the cold cruel world! Without a guardian. How did we do it? We made up games with sticks and tennis balls and ate worms and although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes, nor did the worms live inside us forever. Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't, had to learn to deal with disappointment... Some students weren't as smart as others so they failed a grade and were held back to repeat the same grade... Horrors! Tests were not adjusted for any reason. Our actions were our own. Consequences were expected. No one to hide behind. The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke a law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law, imagine that! This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers and problem solvers and inventors ever. The past 50 years has been an explosion of innovation and new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all. And you're one of them. Congratulations!
