Traditionally used across parts of India and the Mediterranean, they excel in smoky braises, hearty soups, roasted‑veg dishes and warm salads. Their nutty depth pairs beautifully with spices, citrus and charred flavours. Black garbanzos are most famously associated with Italy, where they’re known as ceci neri. These chickpeas are cultivated in California.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eImages \u0026amp; cooking instructions © Rancho Gordo Inc.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e","brand":"The Heirloom Bean Co","offers":[{"title":"453g","offer_id":57603176825206,"sku":"Z-GRGBLG\/453G","price":7.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0719\/9925\/files\/1_black-garbanzo-bean-714297_jpg.webp?v=1775166831"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0719\/9925\/collections\/British-Chickpeas-Norfolk-1800x1200_70358ddd-022c-4b73-8a28-9eb1b40a73d9.jpg?v=1684953567","url":"https:\/\/hodmedods.co.uk\/collections\/chickpeas\/north-american.oembed","provider":"Hodmedod's Wholefoods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
