Description
Dried chickpeas are a store cupboard staple for dips, soups and salads. Chickpea connoisseurs insist that the flavour of dried chickpeas is far superior to tinned. Once cooked, they have a soft, creamy texture.
Use dried chickpeas to make hummus or spiced fritters. You can add them to soups, stews and curries like chana masala. They are a key ingredient in the classic Italian soup, pasta e ceci.
Toss cooked chickpeas with olive oil and spices, then bake until crispy. They make a tasty topping for dips and salads.
Soak in water for 6-8 hours or overnight. Then, add to a pan of cold water and bring to the boil. Simmer for 45-60 minutes or until tender.
Store in a cool dry place.
