Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) 1KG

These are nice and big, and cook up within half an hour following an overnight soak - usually a good sign that they haven't been sitting in a warehouse for years. I've used them for hummus and pasta e cece so far, and they're very tasty. The size means they'll probably roast well for a snack so I'll be giving that a try next. Decent price considering the quality too.

recently purchased the Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) in a 1KG package, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with the quality. As an avid home cook, I love experimenting with different recipes and recently tried making homemade hummus using these chickpeas. The results were phenomenal!The chickpeas were of excellent quality, with a perfect size and texture. They cooked evenly and easily, becoming tender and soft in no time. The flavor was rich and nutty, exactly what I look for in chickpeas. I was able to achieve a smooth and creamy consistency for my hummus, thanks to these high-quality chickpeas.What I particularly appreciate about this product is the generous 1KG package size. It will undoubtedly last me for ages, allowing me to make countless batches of hummus or experiment with other chickpea-based dishes. The value for money is exceptional, and I can confidently say that I will be purchasing this product again in the future.

I use these dried chickpeas in the main to make felafels. Soaking them in water and a teaspoon of baking soda for 24 hours fully rehydrates the chickpeas ready for the next stage. Good flavour and very versatile for various dishes.

Very good but a bit expensive hence the 4 stars

Large chickpeas of very high quality. Immerse in warm water and leave to soak overnight. Next day bring to boil in plenty of water and simmer for about 90 minutes to two hours. Cool in cold water, remove with slotted spoon, inspect and remove any discoloured peas if any ( usually I don't find any with this brand ! ). I coat them in a small amount of olive oil before storing for a week or two at the back of the fridge. Fabulous flavour - by far the best I have found. I eat them at least three times a week

These chickpeas are massive and great quality, made the best smoothest hummus ever could really tell a difference from using tinned or my regular small chickpeas will definitely buy again 100%.

I don't normally bother to review, but these c'peas are really exceptional. I soaked and cooked them as usual and they are genuinely HUGE - as good as the expensive jars I sometimes 'treat' myself to for special meals.I hope that my review gives people confidence - it is absolutely genuine and I sometimes wish that reviews came with some kind of proof that they weren't manufactured!

good
