    Just tried the lupini flakes and they are really good. I used them replacing rice with a fish curry. Will be making your hummus this week.
    I was making baba ganoush and had no tahini and found two great replacements: unsweetened peanut butter and dehydrated peanut butter. Both worked really well, you couldn’t really tell the difference. Way cheaper too, always a good thing.

    Yeah I have at least 5 pounds of high-quality sweet lupine in my freezer but to be honest I have to use a lot of cinnamon if I’m making a sweet or a lot of everything but the bagel if I’m making crackers or bread so I like the idea that this doesn’t have the bitterness as much as the rest. Happy!!! So I went and ordered 3 pounds of each can’t wait I’m going to try to make some meatloaf with those flakes some crabcakes salmon cakes with those flakes even may be a crumble on top of a loop and vanilla cake help me! Not somebody who likes to bake or cook but I have a new outlook thanks to your video! Can’t wait to make chicken fried steak and my famous gravy with some honest to goodness flour

    Nice video, Steve. I know many people have commented on your speaking voice, which is so easy on the ear. I also appreciate your presentation, which is highly professional. Your use of language, too, is great. No Yada, Yada, erms or uh's. The latter are my pet hate. Also your eye contact with the camera makes me feel like you are engaging personally. Many you tubers eyes are shifty and all over the show. Every time a video pops up I watch, even though the content matter may not always be of interest to me. You just are interesting and so likeable.
    Know that you are much appreciated and inspire me to be more keto compliant.

    Awesome recipe…not going to ask you for a swap out, only asking if the same brand lupin flour would work for this instead of the flakes just so I could use the same package for other recipes I've had my eye on that call for flour. If not, I guess I could put the flakes in the processor and grind down to powder but hoping I could avoid a step if possible. Thanks for any guidance on that.

    I've been binge watching your videos over the last few days and really enjoy them. Your voice and storytelling style remind me a bit of Mike Rowe. I consider that a compliment and hope you do too!

    I love hummus and haven't had it in such a long time. I should get my Aviate flakes on Tuesday; thanks for the discount code!!
    Do you have a good keto-friendly recipe for falafel? I also miss those…

    Thank you for Aviate and this recipe. Hummus is my all-time favorite, but I rarely eat it, because of the carbs. I ordered some lupini and I'll give this a go. Thanks!

    I have used regular lupin flour in a few of my recipes on my channel here but it is used sparingly because it is so heavy and the bitter taste. I ordered some based on your recommendation, I hope it is good. I usually mix it with coconut flour 50.50 because of the taste but hate adding the carbs. It worked well in my hot dog buns recipe. I look forward to using this new one. Thanks.

    The commercially available sweet lupini beans are low in the bitter alkoloid and normally don't need processing. If you have dried lupini beans available there is a long but not complicated process of soaking your lupini beans overnight in water, discard water and simmer in a pot covered in water with the lid on for an hour, discard water, cover beans in slightly salted water and refrigerate 24 hours, then repeat discard water and cover in new slightly salted water and refrigerate 24 hours. If you have slightly bitter beans it may take two repeats of the 24 hours cycle of discard water and refresh water and return to refrigerator while very bitter beans could take five repeats. Tasting the water before discarding will let you know when the bitterness has dissappeared and your beans are now ready for use.

    I have found that if you want really nicely minced…or completely obliterated garlic, just put some coarse salt on the cutting board and use the side of your knife to press the garlic into the salt. It grinds the garlic and makes it less sticky. I love hummus…can’t wait to try this. Thanks!

    Thank you, Steve!
    Between your discount code, a gift card balance, free shipping for ordering both products, and a credit card reward, I got both products for under $5. I'm really looking forward to giving these a try, especially in a low carb challah recipe I make which calls for lupin flour.

    I am So excited there is a flake and that this brand is bitter free. I always try and sub out some almond flour in every recipe with lupin just because of calories etc but couldn't do too much because of the taste. It's like my prayers were answered. Glad you found em Steve, bake away for us!

    If you miss grits-ground lupin beans are it! Cook just like grits…. The longer you cook the creamier…i add nut milk as well since i do to grits. Add whatever you would to grits. Butter, cheese, bacon, with shrimp, etc.
