Regular chickpeas can be used in curries, soups and salads. They can be stewed with meats like chicken and fish. These chickpeas are also the main ingredient of hummus (a creamy dip made from chickpeas, tahini, garlic, oil and lemon juice). Chickpeas also make tasty side dishes. They could be mixed with cous cous or tiny grains like quinoa or amaranth then dressed with oil and spices.

How to Cook Chickpeas

Add the chickpeas to boiling water. They will take about an hour to cook. If you want them really soft, leave them simmering for another half hour or so.

When using a pressure cooker, brown chickpeas will be soft and ready in about 15-20 minutes.
