Hi Garrick, Great tip! Do you have a ratio of beans to seeds that seems to work well for you?

I have used anise, coriander, celery, cumin, fennel, dill seeds in beans. First I grind them in an electric coffee mill. My favorite beans are chickpea, pinto and black beans. Chickpeas are the ultimate with a very good protein profile. I never make humus which is a disgusting greasy mess The Apiaceae or Umbelliferae (both names are allowed by the ICBN) is a family of usually aromatic plants with hollow stems, commonly known as umbellifers. It includes angelica, anise, arracacha, asafoetida, caraway, carrot, celery, centella asiatica, chervil, cicely,coriander/cilantro, cumin, dill, fennel, hemlock, lovage, Queen Anne's Lace, parsley, parsnip, sea holly, the now extinct silphium, and other relatives. It is a large family with about 300 genera and more than 3,000 species. The earlier name Umbelliferae derives from theinflorescence being generally in the form of a compound "umbel", and has the same root as the word "umbrella". The botanical subspeciality that studies Apiaceae is sometimes called sciadophytography.
