Black Chickpeas from Montana

Black chickpeas are, in fact, one of the common chickpeas used across the world, just not here in the United States. Although dark chickpeas sport an earthier flavor than beige chickpeas, the real attraction is their color, black.

Like black salt, it's the contrast that makes them a standout. Though not as deep rich black as the dried bean, once cooked it is still a surprise!

For Halloween, black hummus might be cool. Black garbanzo beans seem to lend themselves to floating in a bright orange carrot soup or in a chana masala.

With more fiber and high in iron, many look for this special chickpea. Known as ceci neri in Italian, these dark chickpeas take a little more time to soak and cook; and thus are less popular. In the end these little Black Butte chickpeas work well in a recipe that calls for longer cooking time like a stew of mutton.
