Unfortunately hemp seeds are not widely available here in Australia. I think Australia is one of the only countries where it’s legal to sell hemp seeds for “animal consumption only”!! I know, pretty backwards, hey. Lets hope Australia will enter the 21st century sometime soon.

Finally got around to trying the hemp hummus… amazing! I like using hemp protein and hemp oil but had a hard time with hemp milk and hemp butter, but the hemp butter in hummus is awesome! Want to try the seed next…

@ sara thomas – Sorry for this late response, yeesh. Anyways, there’s no protein in the hemp oil, it’s just pure 100% oil. But there are lots of plant foods that are complete proteins! Oats, buckwheat, quinoa, soy, spirulina, chlorella, chia . . . I know there’s more I’m forgetting.

sayward!
just received my hemp oil (had to order it because i live in the twilight zone!) & it is wonderful! what a great flavor! i am using it to make dinner
(homemade pita chips & baba ganoush).

question tho- is there complete protein found in hemp oil as well? i know nutritional yeast flakes are also a c.p. do you know of any other foods that are complete proteins?

thanks for introducing me to something great!

Thanks for the heads up! I’ll attempt a small batch of the milk (just because you never know) and see how it is. Somehow though, I love the almond milk so much, I can’t imagine switching. :)

@ Deven – Just a heads up, I adore everything hemp *except* I cannot stand homemade hemp milk (and yogurt was even worse). I don’t know what it is but I couldn’t stomach it. So hemp is great for *almost* everything but if you’re making your own maybe stick to almonds for the milk. Just my fair warning! =D

DragonTat2: Thank you for plugging them as well! They’re wonderful…and even more local to those of us in the NW. Yummy ice cream!

Thank you! I was just making a joke with my partner that everything in our life is going nuts… almonds to be exact and that I really wanted an alternative to soy that wasn’t just almonds. This sounds like a great addition to the menu. I’ll be linking to this entry for my readers. =)
