- If you are using dried chickpeas, steep them in water overnight and then boil for around 1 hour before allowing to cool.
- Our recipe is a quick hummus recipe and the tinned variety works well.
- When drained, an 800g tin of chickpeas weighs around 400g.
- If you are in Turkey, tinned chickpeas are haşlanmış nohut. Tahini is called tahin.
