Preparation

• Toast for depth Preheat the oven to 170°C (338°F). Toast walnuts on a tray for 8 minutes until fragrant. Cool 5 minutes.
• Dry the peppers properly Pat roasted peppers dry with paper towels. Excess liquid makes the dip watery and dull.
• Blend in the right order In a processor blend walnuts and breadcrumbs 20 seconds until sandy. Add peppers, garlic, cumin, Aleppo pepper, salt, honey or pomegranate molasses, and lemon juice. Blend 30–40 seconds until mostly smooth.
• Emulsify for silkiness With the motor running, drizzle in olive oil slowly over 20 seconds. Blend 15 seconds more until glossy and thick.
• Adjust the texture If too thick, add 10–15 ml cold water (2–3 tsp / 0.34–0.5 fl oz). If too loose, blend in 10 g breadcrumbs (2 tbsp / 0.35 oz).
• Plate like a restaurant Spread on a black plate. Make a swirl with a spoon, drizzle a little olive oil, then finish with optional sumac and parsley.
