TRS Kala Chana (Chick Peas) Brown

Black chickpeas are a rare quiet chickpea found in India and a small part of Italy. Aside from being slightly nuttier in flavor than more common chickpeas we’re used to, what makes them stand apart is their color. They can be cooked up and utilized in precisely the same way, and make one unique and striking hummus.

Chickpea may be a key ingredient in hummus and chana masala, and it is often ground into flour to form falafel. It is also utilized in salads, soups and stews, curry and other meal products like channa. The chickpea is vital in Indian, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern cuisine. The soluble fiber in black chickpeas binds the bile acids and prevents it from being absorbed by the body, thus reducing cholesterol levels. Daily consumption of around 3/4 cup of chickpeas helps to decrease LDL cholesterol and total cholesterol triglycerides.
