    Hi B & Team
    I have a couple canned chickpeas and was wondering if I must boil them first before use?
    Gonna make some hummus using the recipe that’s on here.
    Thanks for sharing those recipes

    Hi  – usually there’s no need to boil canned chickpeas but definitely give them a good rinse. However, for creamy hummus, you need the chickpeas to be very well cooked. If they’re not “mushy” enough to easily mash with a fork, go ahead and boil them some more. 

    Let me know how it turns out!

    Hi B,
    It came out creamy and tasty. I had it with veggie salad.
    Will do some more. Will take pics.
