Chickpeas Pressure Cooking
Skip the can and cook your chickpeas from dry so you control the texture and can turn those chickpeas into delicious snacks and side dishes!
- 1 cup dried chickpeas
- 2-3 cups water
Place the dried chickpeas with 2-3 cups of liquid (see notes below) in the inner pot. Put the pressure lid on and turn the valve to seal. Set on high pressure. Determine the cooking time and pressure release time based on how you want them cooked (see notes below).
When the time is up, remove the lid. Use the chickpeas in your favourite recipes or refrigerate up to 5 days.
