Description
Organic Chickpeas - 900 g
Organic chickpeas are a dried legume that belongs to the category of plant-based protein sources and are used in a wide range of cuisines worldwide. The product is certified organic and carries the Danish Ø-label, guaranteeing cultivation without synthetic pesticides or artificial fertilizers. Chickpeas are particularly widespread in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisine, but also find their way into Mediterranean-inspired and Nordic dishes. Before use, dried chickpeas must be soaked in cold water for a minimum of eight to twelve hours and then boiled until tender, which typically takes between one and one and a half hours depending on size and soaking time. Once prepared, they can be used as a filling in soups and stews, as a base for hummus and falafel, or as a protein-rich addition to salads and wraps. The taste is mild and slightly nutty, making them easy to combine with both strong spices and fresh herbs. The texture is firm and creamy inside, and they hold their shape well during cooking, unless boiled to a soft puree. With a protein content of 20g per 100g, chickpeas are an excellent meat substitute in vegetarian and vegan meals. The carbohydrate content is 49g per 100g, and the fat content is relatively low at 6.9g, of which only 0.8g is saturated fatty acids. The product is naturally gluten-free and suitable for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. The bag contains 900g of dried chickpeas, which corresponds to a large amount of prepared product and is suitable for families or those who cook in larger portions. Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to preserve quality. Organic chickpeas are an excellent choice for health-conscious consumers, vegetarians, vegans, and anyone who wants to increase the proportion of plant-based ingredients in their diet.
