  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method

--------  ------------  --------------------------------

  1 1/2           cups  whole shelled hazelnuts

  2             slices  soft white bread -- crusts removed

  1              large  garlic clove -- peeled

     2/3           cup  extra-virgin olive oil -- to 1 cup

                        juice of 1 1/2 lemons -- to taste

                        salt

 

Put the hazelnuts in a deep bowl, cover with boiling water, and let soak

for 1 hour. Drain the nuts and put in a food processor along with the

bread, garlic, and 1 teaspoon water. Blend until smooth, then start

drizzling in the olive oil with the motor running. When all of the oil is

absorbed, add the lemon juice and salt to taste. If you have the patience

and the energy, you can also make this dip by pounding the ingredients in

a large mortar with a pestle. The texture will be finer.

 

Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Transfer to a serving bowl

and serve at room temperature with fried [cFavorite] or a choice of

crudites.

 

Serves 4

 

AuthorNote: Turkish tarator is quite unlike the Lebanese one, which is

made with tahini. You can use walnuts, almonds, or pine nuts instead of

hazelnuts. Walnuts or almonds should be soaked and peeled before using.

Although you could make the sauce without taking the trouble of soaking or

peeling the nuts, the texture would be less soft and the taste slightly

different.
