When cooked, Kabuli chana chickpeas have a firm yet tender texture. They can be used in a variety of dishes, both whole and mashed.

Kabuli chana chickpeas are highly nutritious and provide an excellent source of plant-based protein, dietary fiber, vitamins (especially B vitamins), and minerals (such as iron, magnesium, and potassium). They are also low in fat.

When using dried chickpeas, they need to be soaked in water before cooking to rehydrate them and reduce cooking time. Soaking can take several hours or overnight.

After soaking, Kabuli chana chickpeas can be simmered in water or broth until they become tender. Cooking times vary but generally take around 1 to 1.5 hours for dried chickpeas.
