DRIED CHICKPEAS

HOW TO COOK

Soak the chickpeas. Add the dried chickpeas and water to a large bowl (for every 1 cup of dried chickpeas add 4 cups of water). Let soak overnight, or for at least 8 hours.

Drain the chickpeas. Drain all of the water that the chickpeas soaked in and give them a good rinse.

Cook the chickpeas. Add the chickpeas to a pot and cover with fresh water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and cook for 45 minutes to an hour, or until they’ve reached your desired texture. See notes for pressure cooker & Instant Pot instructions.

Enjoy! At this point the skins can be easily removed, if desired. Use your garbanzo beans to make hummus, crispy baked chickpeas, chickpea soups, and more.
