Suma Organic Chickpeas 500g

Reliable, wholesome, and the perfect base for scratch cooking.

Suma Organic Chickpeas (500g, dry) are a staple for anyone who prefers the superior texture and cost-effectiveness of preparing legumes from scratch. These chickpeas have a wonderful, slightly nutty flavor and a firm, satisfying bite that holds up beautifully in long-simmering dishes like curries, stews, and soups, or when roasted until crunchy.

As a product from the Suma workers' cooperative, these chickpeas are sourced with a deep commitment to organic farming and ethical supply chains. By buying the dried version, you have full control over the salt levels and final texture, making them an excellent choice for batch-cooking and meal prepping.

Why you’ll love them:

• Superior Texture: When you cook them from dry, you can control the "doneness" perfectly—keeping them firm for salads or cooking them until soft for creamy hummus.

• Eco-Friendly & Economical: Dried beans produce less packaging waste and are significantly more budget-friendly than buying pre-tinned versions.

• Pure Ingredient: Nothing but 100% organic chickpeas. No salt, sugar, or preservatives added, leaving you complete freedom to season them to your liking.

• Ethical Quality: Produced by Suma, a 100% vegetarian workers' cooperative renowned for its commitment to fair trade, environmental sustainability, and high-quality organic standards.
