Mille grazie. Hi Shirley, For stovetop, as long as the water is covering the beans by a few inches, you should be fine.
If, while they are cooking, you notice that the beans are dry and not completely covered with water, add some more. I use the slow cooker method with Kroeger brand chickpeas, usually on high, with baking soda. Reply Barbara Naughton April 14, , am First time making this recipe.
Turned out great! Just like the beans in a restaurant salad, my fave. Reply Joyce R March 25, , pm Love your recipe for cooking dry garbanzos! The long soak and cook method worked perfectly, and I love the addition of bay leaf and onion and garlic. I took some and made crunchy snacks with a savory spicy seasoning, but I feel like it needed a little oil or something to make the seasoning stick to the beans. Any suggestions? Otherwise they turned out fantastic!!
Reply Adam March 26, , pm Hi Joyce, you could use any high heat oil to help the seasoning stick to the beans. All comments are moderated before appearing on the site. Thank you so much for waiting.

Cook Chickpeas - Stovetop If using the stovetop, add the soaked, drained, and rinsed beans to a large pot.

Adam and Joanne's Tips Stovetop Method: When simmering, you can keep the pot lid off or on, but slightly ajar allowing some steam to escape while cooking. Beans cooked with the lid on, but ajar, will be creamier, softer, and will break apart more easily. Adding Salt: You can add some salt, but only add salt towards the end of cooking since adding it in the beginning can cause the beans to become a little tough.
We like adding a generous pinch of salt when there are about 30 minutes of cooking time left. Adding baking soda: Baking soda is often added when cooking dried beans. Back in college, I invested in an Italian stainless steel jiggle top, and a few years ago I bought a modern pressure cooker with 3 safety valves.

Your photos are beautiful and my stomach is growling for garbanzo bean soup but most of all I want to see a picture of this pressure cooker who is the star of todays blog. Thanks Priscilla. Ahh the pressure cooker. Great idea! I love garbanzos!! They also mention that adding a little baking soda to the cooking water makes the skins softer. Thanks Judy. I am going to try the boiling water over the beans and letting them soak the hour. Might work better with my lazy-woman schedule.
Thanks Letty, We just got a new pressure cooker for X-Mas and the new cooking instruction were so different than the old ones. This clarifies the whole thing. I agree that the natural cool leaves the beans in better shape.
Wonder if it makes a difference if you are mashing them for refried beans? Thanks Patricia. Havea a stash of black beans right now!!! We just made these for dinner tonight.
I added some shallots and garlic- delicious!! Kelley—love those aromatics—shallot and garlic. I just cooked my first batch of PC garbanzos and I can believe how incredibly smooth textured they are. I presoaked and then cooked them with salt onion garlic and some fresh bay leaves. Im never opening a can again. And I have this lovely broth to use as well. Hi Lesley—that is so cool—thanks for writing. Yes the broth is bonus. Great Deborah. Have a look around this site using the search word vegan.
I put Italian seasoning and basil in with my chickpeas. I just eat them plain out of a container after cooking them. I will have to try the pressure cooker trick as I have a regular pressure cooker that plugs in not off the stove. Thanks for the comments Tim! I love dried and salted cooked garbanzos as a snack! I have recently found that after cooking them to satisfy my craving or something hard and crunchy..
I chomped down 9 pounds of pressured cooked chick peas in less than a week. Guess what… I gained over 5 pounds and have to struggle now to get back into the top ranger of my BMI. If they did not do that to me.. I could literally live off of those yummy crunchy peas. I love those crunchy baked chickpeas too! Salty with kosher salt. Love the air fryer idea. I am getting one that goes on top of an Instant Pot—actually a competitor, Mealthy.
Thanks for the note. Very restrictive. I need to do more things to liven up my veggies. Ahh—I bet just drying them is delicious anyway!
It was pretty hard to find that considering your one of the first in Google for cooking chickpeas. When I do make them now I cook them or mix them with lentils and split peas and using little or no seasoning. Thanks for these recipes.
