Hilbeh-Traditional Spicy Yemenite Fenugreek Dip

I am going to say this is not something I am eating again.  I have posted and do admit I have issues with certain textures-mostly those that are the same texture as snot-and this one falls into that category. It DOES have a great flavor so if snot is your thing, don’t let this one go.  It is, of course, one of the 1000 Foods to Eat Before you Die.  Making it is quite fun-sort of a science project.  You take 2 tablespoons of ground up Fenugreek seeds and then you pour six cups of boiling water on top and wait 24 hours.  After pouring off the extra water, I was left with about 1 cup of slimy goo (hence the snot description).  This goo is then blended with tomatoes and spices to form the dip to be eaten with bread.  I know I am selling it but after my obligatory bite, I couldn’t force myself to try another bite.  The 1000 Foods list have some amazing things and then they have some traditional things a person should try.  If you find yourself in Yemen (?) give it a try.  Otherwise, I say give it a pass.
