Chickpeas, also called garbanzo beans, are part of the legume family, which includes a range of beans, peanuts, soybeans and lentils. Although the common chickpea being marketed is tan or beige, there are also yellow, red, dark green or brown varieties. We market two of these groups that are most in demand: the large, light-seeded kabuli, otherwise know as garbanzo beans, and the small, dark-seeded desi.
Chickpeas are native to the Mediterranean region and are a staple of many Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and Indian diets, such as hummus, and curries. Chickpeas offer specific benefits to a healthy diet. They provide vitamins and minerals and significantly boost intake of manganese and folate.
