Golden Chickpeas

Brindisa Epic Golden Chickpeas 500g are a carefully selected Spanish chickpea, grown around the town of Fuentesaúco in Zamora, an area known for producing particularly well-textured pulses. These medium to large chickpeas have a warm, creamy colour and a distinctive curved shape, with a naturally nutty flavour that comes through once cooked.

When prepared, they hold their shape while becoming soft and buttery inside, with a smooth skin that doesn’t toughen. This balance of texture makes them especially versatile, working just as well in slow-cooked dishes as they do in lighter recipes. Their ability to absorb flavours while remaining intact means they perform reliably in a wide range of cooking styles.

Packed in a traditional cloth sack, these dried Spanish chickpeas are a dependable store cupboard staple, suited to everything from comforting stews to fresh, ingredient-led dishes.

Do chickpeas need soaking before cooking?

Yes, soaking for around 12 hours helps them cook more evenly and improves their final texture.
