Organic Chickpeas

Store in an airtight glass container in a cool and dry location that is void from direct sunlight.
Refrigeration is recommended in warm climates.
This will last up to 18 months when stored correctly. Please see the Best Before Date.

We suggest soaking your chickpeas for 12-24 hours prior to cooking. Make sure you drain the soaking water and rinse thoroughly.
Chickpeas can be cooked on the stove top, slow cooked or pressure cooked.
If cooking on the stove top, bring a pot of water to the boil with ratio 1:3. 1 part soaked chickpeas to 3 parts water.
Let boil and simmer on medium heat for approximately 60 minutes or until tender.
You will know your chickpea is cooked if with a small amount of pressure between two fingers it crumbles.

These hearty and nutritious legumes are very versatile. Great for dips including hummus and a great addition to soups, curries, salads, pasta dishes and so much more!
Chickpeas take more time to cook than beans or rice, but they are well worth the wait.
