For quicker cooking soak the mix for 2 or 3 hours in double the volume of water to mix. Either rinse the soaked mix and cook in stock for 30 to 40 minutes or, for pilau, cook dry in a little oil for a few minutes before adding stock as required
Add soaked or cooked mix to stews. Try home-milling and adding to breads, savoury muffins & pastry.
Notes on Cooking Dried Pulses
Cooking times for dried pulses and mixes will be longer at higher altitudes and when cooking with hard water or older pulses.
Adding bicarbonate of soda during soaking and/or cooking will soften the pulses and reduce the cooking time.
Cooked Pilau Mix can be used immediately or frozen for later use.

British Chickpeas
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
£3.79
|
The harvest 2022 chickpeas are in! And we think these are the best looking and best eating UK chickpeas we've ever had. These delicious and tender chickpeas are the harvest of the fourth year of British production. Grown just outside Norwich in Norfolk, the weather has been especially kind to them - they ripened early and harvest was much more straightforward than in previous years. |
Norfolk farmer Henry Raker harvested the first ever field-scale crop of British chickpeas on his Breckland farm in 2019. This year's crop was grown on a different farm (just outside Norwich) and harvested almost a month earlier than we've managed in previous years. Packed and ready for sale this is the best tasting crop we've ever had.
