About chickpeas
Chickpeas are a pulse used across a wide range of cuisines, particularly in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and Indian cooking. The kabuli variety is the most commonly used type, known for its larger size, pale colour and relatively mild flavour.
Like other dried legumes, chickpeas require soaking and cooking before use. Once cooked, they hold their shape while softening, making them suitable for both smooth preparations such as hummus and whole applications like salads and stews.
