Dried Chickpeas (500g)

How to prepare your chickpeas:

It is not necessary to soak chickpeas, but it does have its benefits when soaked overnight. Nutrient uptake is increased and cooking time is much less. When added to a pot for cooking, cover the chickpeas in cold water, bring to a boil and then simmer for about an hour to an hour and a half if unsoaked, and 30 minutes to 45 minutes if soaked.
