Directions

Pot

3 minutes

Pour deep-frozen Chickpeas into boiling water. When water starts boiling again, cook for 3 minutes keeping the lid on.

Microwave

5 minutes

Place the closed bag on a plate, with the back seal facing upwards. Put the plate in the microwave and cook for 5 minutes. After cooking, remove plate and bag from the microwave, and wait another 1-2 minutes before opening it. Pour the Chickpeas into a bowl and use them as you prefer. If the microwave power is lower, cooking time should increase by 1 minute for every 100 Watt less. WARNING: do not open or pierce the bag before microwaving. The bag is very hot after cooking; touch it only at the edges.

Tasty Tips

Why not to try a chickpea and cuttlefish soup? Put some oil, garlic and tomato sauce in a pot, add some boiling water, the deep-frozen chickpeas and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the cuttlefish cut into strips and cook for a few minutes.
