arthurwait Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 You can get them in tesco ,i think 99B for 400g IIRC. There must be somewhere cheaper to get them. Don't know the word sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xylophone Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Also known as Garbanzo beans and available in tins in most places, so does away with the need to soak them (if dried of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVicar Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) Also known as Garbanzo beans and available in tins in most places, so does away with the need to soak them (if dried of course). 1. Problem is that you don't know what ingredients the canning companies packed the beans in. You actually should wash them once out of the can. 2. How hard is it to soak dry beans? Here's how you do it: pour dry beans into big pot, cover amply with water (beans will absorb water and swell). Wait overnight. If you do this at night time (and it takes like 15 seconds) you're ready to go the next day. Alternatively, if you do not soak overnight, just boil in water for an hour or two extra. Is this difficult? Oh, and buying the beans dry is much cheaper than buying them in cans. Edited January 27, 2013 by TheVicar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
