Practical guidance

How to choose and store Chickpeas

How to choose

For dried chickpeas, choose whole, uniform beans with few splits or debris. For canned, choose undented, unbulging cans and, where possible, a no-added-salt option.

Storage

Store dried chickpeas airtight in a cool, dry place for up to a year. Refrigerate cooked or opened canned chickpeas in a sealed container and use within 3–4 days.
