Is it possible to turn this legume into the protagonist of a whole culinary week? Write down the ‘yelowrecetas‘ of the month, by our chef Carlos Caballero.

Today we are going to show you the versatility of a single ingredient, the chickpea, perfect for this spring time of the year and the enjoyment of all the members of the family.

Yelow is easy catering, that’s why we find it a very interesting, productive and saving idea to make the most of a product, cook it in different ways one day and then enjoy all its variations during the week. This time we bring you how to cook a kilo of chickpeas at a time and take advantage of them over 7 days. Take note of some of the dishes you can prepare and here are two super delicious and easy-to-make recipes:

Crispy chickpeas with fresh herbs, spiced chickpeas, chickpea spoon dishes, Galician stew with chickpeas, boiled chestnuts, chickpea cream and chickpea and feta burger.

Crispy chickpeas with fresh herbs

We’ll start with crispy chickpeas with fresh herbs, perfect as a healthy appetizer. Once the legume is cooked, this is a very quick and easy recipe.

• Total time: 20 minutes
  Preparation: 5 minutes
  Cooking 15 minutes
• Ingredients for 2 people
  Cooked chickpeas 400 grams
  Garlic cloves 2 units
  Lemon 1 unit
  Cumin grains 1/2 teaspoon
  Sweet paprika 1/2 teaspoon
  Hot paprika 1/4 teaspoon
  Cumin mill 1/4 teaspoon
  Ground black pepper
  Salt
  Bundle of herbs (parsley, fennel, chives, oregano…)
  Plain yogurt to serve

• Preparation:

In case you want to save the 15 minutes of cooking and use the canned chickpeas, open the jar, drain and rinse gently. Then dry them superficially with kitchen paper and chop the garlic cloves very finely. Heat a little virgin olive oil in a large pan or frying pan, add the garlic with the cumin seeds and let them brown a little without burning.

Add the chickpeas, season with salt and pepper and stir, it is preferable that they remain in a single layer and not piled one on top of the other, hence the preference for the wide pan. Add a little lemon zest and the rest of the spices. Sauté over medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. The best sign you will see is if they start to pop. While they are cooking, chop the fresh herbs well.

When the chickpeas are ready, remove from the heat, mix with the herbs and add a little lemon juice. It will be very attractive and delicious if we serve it with yogurt or fresh cheese and extra virgin olive oil on top.

Spiced chickpea and feta burger

We present a recipe for delicious veggie burgers , chickpeas and feta, which certainly have a very appetizing taste.

We could say that falafel has been the starting point of the spicy chickpea and feta burger that we bring you, with the difference that, instead of flour, we will use oat flakes thinking about gluten intolerant people.

It can be varied between standard or small size, to incorporate into a snack menu.

• Ingredients
  Cooked chickpeas: 400 grams
  Cumin: 1 teaspoon
  Ground coriander seed: 1 tsp.
  Sweet paprika: 1 teaspoon
  Chives: 1 piece
  Garlic clove: 1 piece
  Oat flakes: 50 grams
  Tahini or sesame paste: 1 tsp.
  Fresh parsley: a few leaves
  Fresh mint: a few leaves
  Lime zest: 1 piece
  Lime juice: 1/2 lime
  Feta cheese: 75 grams
  Sesame seeds: 1 tbsp.
  salt, ground black pepper and extra virgin olive oil

• Preparation:

Toast the cumin and coriander seeds in a frying pan over medium heat, stirring to make sure they do not burn. Crush them in a mortar and pestle and return them to the pan, along with the paprika, oil and finely chopped onion and garlic.

Cook over low heat until soft (approximately 10 minutes).
In a food processor, grind the oat flakes and reserve half of them (to coat the burgers later).

Add the spiced onion and garlic mixture to the blender, along with the tahini, chopped parsley and mint leaves, lime zest, salt and ground black pepper. Mix until a homogeneous paste is obtained before adding the chickpeas and blend.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and incorporate the crumbled feta with your fingers, mixing by hand. Let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for an hour before dividing it into portions, shaping it and coating it in a mixture of oat flakes flour with sesame seeds.

Finally, fry in a pan with a little oil and serve immediately.

With all these recipes you will be able to make the most of chickpeas, take care of yourself and surprise your guests with innovative and modern recipes.

Last Saturday, May 20, a group of cooks participated in a master class with chef Álvaro Arriaga at Yelow’s facilities.

The attendees in this second edition saw the chef prepare a complete menu live. In the first edition, Christmas dishes were prepared to be held at the end of the year and this time he prepared a tuna marmitako in ‘la cocotte’ from Le Creuset, grilled beef tacos with corn tortillas and for dessert a brownie-cheese cake, a fusion of two well-known cakes in one.

As in the previous edition, more than thirty people attended and were very satisfied with this interactive course, at all times, the chef was explaining the method of preparation of the dishes. Álvaro Arriaga highlighted the good atmosphere and the interest shown by the participants. Throughout the three hours they interacted with the chef and were interested in the products, the technique and the utensils used.

If you like the kitchen and want to be one of the assistants you can get information in Yelow, a specialized trade in which both professionals and individuals always find everything they need for their kitchen and at the best price. “We understand the needs and requirements of professionals in the sector, and we have been able to collect them in our catalog while we ally with the right suppliers to achieve prices that allow our customers to achieve tangible savings when buying in our store,” says Miguel Angel Lopez, manager.

Yelow has become a benchmark in the hospitality industry | One of his recent commissions has been the TTT restaurant.

As the manager of the TTT restaurant, Carlos López, tells us, they decided to go for Yelow because of the confidence it inspired in them. They opened on January 4 and have earned a place among the innovative places. Their gastronomic offer is the identity of the establishment (TTT) based on dishes to share segmented in three thematic groups:

-Tetando: dishes of traditional Andalusian cuisine (artichoke flower on a bed of pistachios, flamenquín, croquettes of different styles, low-temperature octopus, patatas bravas, beef tenderloin…).

-Tables: gourmet offer ideal as an accompaniment to wines and/or beers from our cellar (Iberian ham with fried almonds, Sendra sausage, Cantabrian anchovies on bread with olive oil, tables of pates and assorted cheeses, lomo en orza, asparagus tips with ajonegro aioli…).

-Tartar and tatakis (offering different styles of preparation and cuts of bluefin tuna and beef among other top quality products).

All this in a warm and cozy atmosphere, combining vintage style with modern touches respecting the fine materials (wood, glass, brick …). According to this style incorporates a set of lights and sound that changes throughout the day to create different environments that invite you to enjoy from a quiet lunch or dinner with background music, to modern and lively to share a cocktail or cocktail with good music today.

All this has been possible thanks to the collaboration with Yelow, which has provided all the kitchenware supply, and has collaborated in the design and installation of part of the kitchen and bar machinery and accessories.

According to Carlos López, they trusted them because “it is a leading and innovative company with a magnificent team of professionals who provide ideas and creative solutions at a competitive price and with a personalized service”.

The hospitality and household supplies company Ye

This chain of cafeterias and pastry shops is in continuous growth. Both in their own establishments and in their franchises, they have entrusted Yelow with the installation of display cabinets, kitchens and kitchenware.

Why did you trust Yelow to set up your new facilities?

In Casa Isla we trust Yelow because it is a leading company in the hospitality industry and most importantly, it is from Granada. It offers us great services and benefits when setting up our premises being always fast and efficient, helping us to solve all those problems that may arise in this path.

What products do you use?

Currently most of the machinery used in our new stores belongs to Yelow. Our cake and ice cream display cabinets stand out above all. These are the most striking inside any of our stores.

You have several franchises, do you also work with Yelow?

We always try to ensure that our franchisees work with the best possible machinery, and Yelow is always the right choice.

Do you have any new openings in the pipeline?

We don’t know what this year will bring. But we currently do not have any new openings in the pipeline.

Both Yelow and Casa Isla are two companies from Granada with projects in other provinces, are there synergies when working together?

Working with a leading company in the sector always benefits us both inside and outside our province.

In this month’s ‘Yelowreceta’ Carlos Caballero shows us how to prepare this kind of jam in different ways: an ideal flavor bomb to accompany meat and fish.

We challenged our corporate chef Carlos Caballero to teach us how to make chutney in steps easier than those required to pronounce it, and this is what he told us:

What is chutney?

It is a sweet and sour condiment, a kind of jam made with fruits or vegetables cooked in vinegar, with very aromatic spices and sugar. It is a flavor bomb originally from India, where it is called chatni and means “to suck” in the sense of “to lick your fingers”, although there are also those who say it means “strong spices”.

We already know in a nutshell what it is, but how many types of chutney can be prepared? Giving an answer to this question would be like giving an answer to how many cloud shapes there are, it all depends on your imagination, since they are popularly made with garlic, apricot, coriander, coconut, lime, mango, apple, mint, orange, tamarind, tomato… But you can try with whatever you feel like!

In this post we are going to break down two of them, zucchini chutney and tomato chutney.

Zucchini chutney

The zucchini chutney is a delicacy that you can serve to your most demanding diners, highly flavored and with a spicy finish. It is very easy to prepare.

Ingredients

• 700 grams of zucchini
• 1 onion
• 200 grams of cava vinegar
• 100 grams of wine vinegar
• 4 cloves
• 1 tbsp ginger
• 1 tbsp curry
• 1 tbsp ground mustard
• 1 tsp chili pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 180 grams of brown sugar

Prepared by

Wash and dice the zucchini and julienne the onion. In a large saucepan put the vinegars on the fire, add all the spices, zucchini, onion and brown sugar, mix well and bring to a boil.

When it starts to boil, reduce to medium heat and simmer for 40-50 minutes, stirring from time to time, especially at the end when it starts to caramelize. Then we can grind the chutney to make it finer to the palate, although some of us prefer small pieces.

Allow to cool before placing the chutney in a sterilized jar. If you want to make preserves you already know that you must cook the jars in a bain-marie. Although with these quantities you will get enough zucchini chutney to be consumed in one or two weeks, which can be kept in the refrigerator.

Tomato chutney

For this chutney we also put everything from scratch to cook and once cooked we add fresh cilantro and onion. It is ideal to accompany some tempura avocados.

Ingredients

• 500 grams of pear tomatoes
• 100 grams of apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon coriander seeds
• 1 tablespoon raisins
• 1 tablespoon mustard seeds
• A pinch of chili flakes
• 50 grams of red onion
• Fresh cilantro
• Salt
• Pepper

Preparation

Peel and cut the tomatoes into medium pieces together with the vinegar, sugar, coriander seeds, raisins, mustard seeds and a pinch of chili flakes in a saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil.

Cook over low heat until a jam-like texture is achieved. Approximately 1 hour. Let cool, finely chop red onion and fresh cilantro to taste and add to the chutney.

Besides knowing what it is, you can prepare a chutney following this small guide, why don’t you try it and let us know how it goes?

We love it!

In the Parque de la Concordia in Jaén is the Quiosco del Parque establishment, which has been completely renovated by the hotel and home supplies firm Yelow.

The new concessionaire company has opted for the complete renovation of this space for which it has relied on Yelow. It has been a comprehensive project that includes all the kitchen machinery, kitchenware, interior bar area and decoration of the entire space, in short, the complete equipment of the well-known Quiosco del Parque.
