Ever since joining Clover, I think a lot about chickpeas. A. LOT. I think about the nutty-buttery flavor they have raw, the deep savory edge they get when cooked, their creamy richness when blended up in our housemade hummus. I think about their protein punch (one cup = 14.5 grams of the good stuff, 20% of your recommended daily amount), their high fiber, iron, and Vitamin B count. I think about how pretty they are, with that distinctive curved ridge and little pointed peak that tells you this ain’t any old bean: THIS IS CHICKPEA.
