  1. In 2024, global chickpea production amounted to 17.5 million tons, increasing by 5.8% compared to 2023 and almost reaching the record level of 2022. India, Australia, and Russia made the main contribution to this increase.

  2. A cooking saga: Chickpea Burgers. It wasn't very hard to make those Chickpea Burgers, it was actually quite easy!

    It only took a tablespoon of oat flour and two tablespoons of water for them to hold their shape in a pleasing way when forming the patty.

    However, nowhere in the instructions does it tell you that it will start to disintegrate during the frying process (as it doesn't have a good binder, which is something any good patty needs). Perhaps the missing feta would've served that purpose (it was pricey where I shop).

    Also, the seasoning levels need to be adjusted, I need a bit more punch to my patty next time. I'll add some form of spicier substance.

    I might have to make them with egg (or another binder) and some oat flour. Also, my kale wasn't defrosted after an hour in the fridge, so I didn't add that. However, next time, I know how long it will actually take to defrost kale.

    I don't do much cooking these days, but when I saw a recipe for chickpea arrabbiata in the Listener I thought I would give it a try. It was very tasty indeed and the sort of dish that, if I ever stopped eating meat, I would eat very often. And reasonably quick and easy too. Would definitely have again.

  9. Alrighty. One more of my favorite recipes (I make it a lot in the Fall and Winter). Another chickpea recipe (can you tell I love chickpeas?). Original recipe was "404" but I found it via the Internet Archive!

    #Moroccan #Chickpea Stew - Recipe

    Adapted from Rice and Spice, by Robin Robertson (Harvard Common Press, 2000).

    "This flavorful Moroccan stew is also known as a 'tagine,' after the earthenware pot in which it is cooked.

    We can use a regular saucepan and still achieve delicious results, a thick and fragrant stew heady with spices, apricots, raisins, and lemon zest, but with its protein coming from healthful chickpeas instead of meat.

    INGREDIENTS

    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 large onion, chopped
    1 carrot, chopped
    1 zucchini, diced
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne
    1 16-ounce can diced tomatoes
    2 cups vegetable stock or water (I use vegetable stock)
    Salt, to taste
    1/2 cup dried apricots
    1/4 cup raisins
    Zest of 1 lemon
    2 1/2 cups cooked or canned chickpeas, rinsed if canned
    2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro or parsley
    6 cups hot cooked couscous or rice

    1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until hot. Add the onion and carrot and cook, covered, for 5 minutes, or until softened. Add the zucchini, garlic, cinnamon, turmeric, salt, cayenne, tomatoes, stock or water, and salt to taste. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 25 minutes.

    2. Meanwhile, soak the apricots in hot water for 20 minutes, then drain and finely chop. Add the apricots, raisins, lemon zest, and chickpeas to the vegetable mixture and cook 5 minutes longer, or until hot and the flavors are blended. Stir in the cilantro or parsley and serve over couscous or rice.

    Serves 4-6."

  14. The word #chickpea comes from Old French *pois chiche* and #Latin *cicer*, also seen in Italian *ceci*, Polish *ciecierzyca*, and Hungarian *csicseri*. In Eastern Europe, terms often trace back to Persian "noxod". The term #garbanzo may have a pre-Roman Iberian or Proto-Germanic origin. Mediterranean dishes like falafel and hummus highlight chickpeas; #hummus comes from Arabic *حُمُّص*, meaning “chickpea.” #etymology #languages #mapologies #linguistics

  15. Miso Ramen (instant)

    Good enough when my mind is too busy 😋
    It took only about ten minutes to prepare 😊

    Toppings: chickpea pâté (instant), sautéed baby spinach, pickled takana (from a package), and ginger (from a jar)

  16. CW: Practice with chickpea pancake

    I was eager to try the savory chickpea pancake recipe I found. Learning new things typically involves practice before mastery, and today's pancake was good practice. I learned some things that did not work. Best of all, what I made did taste good, though what was intended as filling was used instead as topping.

  18. This was beyond amazing.

    I will not have it again.

    Something about spending $5 for a can of beans. I was given a coupon for a free try.

    Any culinary wizards willing to guess to a similar "good enough" recipe?

  19. CW: New batch of desi chickpea and purple barley tempeh

    I liked the previous batch of this mix (leisureguy.ca/2023/09/04/chick) so much that I decided to reprise it at once (plus I have a lot of desi chickpeas and purple barley on hand).

    A bigger batch than usual: 4 cups, not 3.

    L: cooked desi chickpeas, seed coat in place; R: cooked purple barley, spread out to cool.

  20. Called the tempeh done at 80 hours.

    The desi chickpea and purple barley batch has now been sectioned and refrigerated. Here's the whole story:

  21. Desi chickpea & purple barley tempeh at 48 hours.

    It's doing well. I think 24 more hours will probably be enough, though I might go a few hours longer.

  22. #TIL that #chickpea leaves and young stems are excuding a liquid that looks like and feels like water, but tastes very sour (acidity like lemon or vinegar, but seemingly without any distinct flavour).

    Zoom in on the rather poor photo and see the glistening “dew drops”.

    I didn't read the entire, rather long, article about chickpea in Junior Woodchucks' Guidebook, but the sourness is not mentioned in the section about leaves:

    One more leafy picture and there's a clear precedent for #ShowUsYourLeavesMonday. 😉

  23. Exciting Breakthrough in Chickpea Research: Unraveling the Secrets of Drought and Root Rot Resistance

    A team of researchers has made significant strides in understanding how a tiny molecule, known as MicroRNA397, can play a crucial role in enhancing chickpea’s resilience against drought and dry root rot disease.

  24. Tonights dinner saw us re-visiting those canned curry pastes that have been taking up pantry space.

    Here's a quick pantry clean-out style curry for a weeknight meal.

    The curry is fragrant and spicy with a not-to-hot kick complemented by the fresh sour raita (yogurt sauce).

    Topped with flavor packed crunchy potatoes, this was a kid favorite! Oh, and did I mention #Vegetarian ?

    Hope you enjoy!
