Alce Nero Organic Dried Chickpeas are delectable dried organic chickpeas from Italy. These round and cream-colored legumes have a delicately chewy texture and a rich, nutty taste, ready to infuse your kitchen with authentic Mediterranean flavors!
Chickpeas were first recorded in 3500 B.C. in Jericho and Çayönü, so it’s safe to say that these legumes are one of the earliest cultivated ones. Chickpeas are filled with an earthy flavor and creamy but sometimes mildly grainy texture, making them universally popular across the globe. Chickpeas are traditionally used for making hummus, and this legume is an integral part of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines.
