2 lb. bag of Northwest grown Garbanzo Beans. Also known as Ceci, chickpeas, garbanzo.

Northwest-grown Garbanzo Beans, also known as Ceci, chickpeas, or garbanzo.

Chickpeas (aka Garbanzo) are a regular staple in American cuisine. Almost everyone has a favorite hummus recipe or three, and they're an almost ubiquitous feature of the supermarket salad bar.

In fact, the humble chickpea (or garbanzo, or ceci bean, or Indian pea... ad infinitum) is an international favorite. It turns up in cuisines from India, South America, Northern and Western Europe. Perhaps their popularity has something to do with their mildly sweet flavor or their unusual shape.

Chickpeas pair well with pastas, rice, and even heartier grains like hard wheat and farro. They make a distinctive dip, of course, but they're even better in a long-cooking stew. They can also be ground for flour, deep-fried, or even made into sweet pastes, candies, and puddings. For me, chickpeas were the gateway food that opened up my palate to all things Middle Eastern.

Wow!
These chickpeas are second only to ones I bought in Seville. Plump, creamy, fresh (weird way to describe something dried, I know, but what I mean is, these beans haven’t sat on the shelf of your grocery store for months. The difference will blow your mind.) - you can’t go wrong buying these. I’ve used them in falafel, curries, and stews. Simply a fantastic ingredient.
