Roasted chickpeas ...popcorn-like
cindyleigh:
Has anyone tried this? See this link: http://melissasloveoffood.com/2010/02/25/chickpeas-the-new-popcorn/
I tried it and it was NOT like popcorn. The chickpeas didn't "pop". I read that some brands do and some don't. If you have gotten this to work, what brand did you use?
merigayle:
i have roasted chickpeas before, a few times, and thought they were just ok. I did savory and sweet ones and just was not impressed.
caribougrrl:
they don't taste at all like popcorn and they're more work than popcorn; I think the analogy is just that both are a guilt free salty snack compared to, say, potato chips
I really like roasted chickpeas though.
gebuh:
I. think I posted something here recently about roasted chickpeas
Run Amok:
I think they're good. I've never heard of them "popping" though and I can't really imagine that eating them in significant quantities would be "better" for you than popped corn... but I guess it depends on how you define "healthy". I would also be concerned with the gastro intestinal consequences of eating them in significant quantities!
