Mise en place: prepare before you begin

1. Read the whole recipe and identify the sequence: prepare ingredients, warm and drain the chickpeas, then blend and serve.
2. Measure ingredients and arrange them in order of use. Keep later additions separate and note any ingredient divided between two steps.
3. Set out the equipment named in the recipe and clear your workspace. Check ingredients and tools once more, then follow the steps in order.
