Hmmm, I looked there but didn’t see it. Then again, I didn’t look too hard since I assumed it wouldn’t be there. Thanks for the tip, hopefully I’ll find it!

gaga: I tend to get dried chickpeas in asian supermarkets – certainly the ones that I go to tend to be well stocked with various kinds of dried pulses and they’re usually a lot cheaper than elsewhere – hope that helps!

Looks great! I’ve actually always wondered if they sell dried chickpeas but haven’t seen them. Where did you get yours?

Mmmm, now you’ve got me thinking about butter beans slow-baked with some carrots, tomatoes and oregano…
As for the pressure cooker, if you cook pulses a lot, then it’s definitely something to consider – I haven’t looked back since the day I got mine!

I love pulses, cook with them often and never get enough in those little tins. At the moment I have a big pot of butter beans cooking away on the stove – when they’re done, I’ll freeze them in 400-500g bags so they’re always ready when needed. I do like the idea of the pressure cooker, especially for chickpeas, which often seem to take days-worth of cooking the normal way!

Well it’s not my fault I got distracted. The plumber fixing the heating asked me an important question….oh…actually that was the next day when I let the lentils & turmeric boil over. See, I’m just like the bad cop here. Just destined to make you look good.
