Fiesta Dip Ingredients
Food Processor with finished dip
Cumin is listed as a high OX on your landing page, and yet you include in your recipe fo Fiesta Red Pepper Dip. That may confuse people. Are you telling us to avoid HIGH OX foods , or use them in recipes ?
It is the portion consumed that makes a food high in oxalate. 1 teaspoon of cumin is high at about 20mg oxalate. The Fiesta Red Pepper Dip recipe here uses 1/2 tsp. cumin which has about 10mg oxalate; given that the dish serves 12, that’s under 1 mg oxalate per serving. That is considered an negligible amount of oxalate, but you can reduce it further by using less cumin.
This sauce seems similar to Harissa which I want to use in a recipe. But Is Harissa sauce low oxalate? The ingredients listed are Red Bell Pepper, Red Chili Pepper, Garlic, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Vinegar, Salt.
