The lupine spread is a healthy and tasty spread that can be made with herbs as well as with a sweetish variation. It tastes just perfect with a fresh loaf of bread. Eat it then just like that or top it still with raw vegetables for extra vitamins.
Lupine spread
The preparation of a lupine spread can vary depending on the recipe, but generally the lupine seeds are first cooked to remove the bitter substances. They are then pureed and mixed with various spices, herbs and flavors to create a tasty spread. The spread can be savory or sweet and can be used in many ways, for example on bread, rolls or with vegetable sticks.
