๐ช Starting from raw? The basics (2)
Chickpeas: canned or from dry
Canned works everywhere โ one 15-oz can, drained and rinsed, is about 1ยฝ cups. From dry: soak overnight, then simmer 60โ90 minutes until creamy inside (1 cup dry makes about 3 cups).
Cooking brown rice
1 cup dry + 2 cups water, pinch of salt: bring to a boil, cover, simmer low 40โ45 minutes, rest 10 off heat. Makes about 3 cups. Freezes well in portions.
