What are some of the new ingredients and products that you've tried lately? They may have sounded bad, but tasted great. Here are some of mY recent finds:
Pea milk by "Ripple"- A little starchy, very slight green hue, but tastes awesome.
Aquafaba- It's the liquid left in the can of beans, usually garbanzos. It whips up like whipped cream. Tastes great, a little on the light side in texture compared to whipped cream.
Gochujang- Korean, fermented chili paste. OMG...SO GOOD!!!
The mother of all great hot sauces and pastes. It has a depth of flavor that nothing else does. A little goes a long ways.
Seaweed crackers- They look aweful, green and dry, but they're actually pretty tasty and healthy too.

I have been waiting for pasta made from chick peas but haven't found them yet. I am also waiting for Kalettes to be available, they are a cross of kale and brossil sprouts. Your products sound intriguing.

Chick pea pasta is available but probably not in your local market.
