Chickpeas
This pea adorns itself with false feathers, because it is not a real pea. Although it also belongs to the legume family, the chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is not related to the pea (Pisum sativum). However, the chickpea also has an old tradition as a useful plant. It has been cultivated in Italy and Greece since ancient times. It found its way to us in the Middle Ages, but was forgotten again in recent times. Only in Spain, France and Italy it remained on the table. It was only through Turkish and Arabic cuisine that she managed to return to our regions. Fortunately for us, because their valuable ingredients make chickpeas a healthy nutritional contribution. Lots of protein, plenty of dietary fibre and plenty of minerals are provided to a degree that covers a large part of the daily requirement. Above all, their vitamin A content is worth mentioning. It also provides us with vitamins E and C, vitamins of the B-complex and other vitamins. Our organic chick peas are grown sustainably and traded fairly. Thanks to long-standing business relationships, we are in a position to deliver consistently good quality.
Use
Chickpeas can be more than just formed into the famous falafel. They give us savory stews and soups, make the Italian classic Pasta e Ceci with tomatoes and pasta and are a valuable component of Hummus, which should not be missing in any health food shop. Other spreads and pastes also become creamy and smooth thanks to the chickpea. Chickpeas are also really strong as a low-fat snack. The cooked legumes are roasted and seasoned to taste, preferably orientally. Chick peas taste good in salads, here they go well with tuna as well as with cold roasts. Chickpea flour is suitable for all kinds of dishes. It is mixed with bread grain, tastes good as a pancake or in vegetable noodles. Sweets can also be prepared with chickpea flour. Biscuits, desserts and Laddu, an Indian confection with chickpea flour, sesame and dried fruits are real delicacies.
