OTHER: These are not immature 'regular' chick peas that were harvested early before they fully matured & turned beige. That's a thing, this is a different thing. Lol. This is a different type of chick pea from India that IS green.
Chickpeas are great for cooking, roasting, in stews, or adding to salads. They have a mild nutty flavor and are packed with protein. Worldwide, there are a large variety of uses for these legumes. They can be ground into ‘gram flour’ (aka chickpea flour) which is frequently used in Indian cuisine, they are used to make falafel, hummus, farinata, curries, are found in traditional Mexican dishes, and are used in sweets & deserts in the Philippines. Also commonly called the Garbanzo Bean, these are an heirloom plant.
We also have "regular" beige Chick Pea seeds available in our shop. Grow both & add some color to your favorite dishes!
