How to Use
Kabuli Chana requires soaking before cooking to significantly reduce cooking time and ensure even tenderness.
Rinsing and Soaking:
Rinse the Kabuli Chana thoroughly under running water to remove any dust or debris.
Soak: Soak the chickpeas in plenty of water (at least 3 times the volume of the chana) for at least 8-12 hours or preferably overnight. Soaking is crucial for softening the chickpeas and aiding digestion.
Drain the soaking water. Rinse again with fresh water before cooking.
Cooking (after soaking):
Pressure Cooker (Recommended): Add the soaked Kabuli Chana to a pressure cooker with fresh water (typically 1 part chana to 2-3 parts water). Cook for 8-10 whistles on medium heat, or until tender. The cooking time can vary significantly depending on the age of the chana and your cooker. Let the pressure release naturally.
Open Pot: Add the soaked Kabuli Chana to a large pot with plenty of fresh water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 1.5-2 hours or until very tender. You may need to add more hot water as it cooks.
Common Culinary Uses:
Chole/Chana Masala: The most popular Indian dish made with Kabuli Chana, a spicy and tangy curry.
Hummus: A classic Middle Eastern dip made from pureed chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic.
Salads: Cooked chickpeas add protein and texture to various salads.
Soups and Stews: Can be added to hearty soups and stews for extra nutrition.
Snacks: Roasted or fried chickpeas can be a crunchy and healthy snack.
Falafel: Ground chickpeas are the main ingredient for these deep-fried patties.
Shelf Life: Typically 12 months (1 year) from the date of packaging, when stored correctly in its dry form. Always refer to the "Best Before" date printed on your product packaging for the most accurate information.
