Description
One of the earliest cultivated legumes, chickpeas (Cicer arietinum)-also known as garbanzo beans, have been grown in India, the Middle East and parts of Africa for thousands of years. There is evidence to suggest that chickpeas may have been grown in Turkey 7,400 years ago. Chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans, are small, knobby, beige legumes that are well known as a key ingredient in hummus, falafel and many curries. They add a delicious nutlike taste, buttery texture and dense nutritional content.Weight: 10.5 Lb
