Garbanzo Beans, also known as Chickpeas, are a staple of the Mediterranean, India, and the Middle East. They provide high quality protein, add a "meaty" texture to soups and salads, and are wonderful when ground and used in hummus. Slightly larger than the average pea, these round, buff-colored beans have a firm texture and a mild, nutlike flavor.

Keeps best refrigerated or frozen.
