Guest guest Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 I found the recipe. There are a couple of varieties of chickpeas. I found it online but am nto sure where I found it. It says right there, Sproutpeople.  Carolyn Wilkerson  Sprout Hummus Fantastic! We've made this recipe more often than any other over our years as Sproutpeople. Sprouts to Use Garbanzoid Big Beige Garbanzos Lil Beige Garbanzos Black Garbanzos Brown Garbanzos PeaBanzo Spring Garden San Francisco Mix Beanies Awesome Ingredients 1 cup Sprouts 1 Tbs. tahini 1 Tbs. lemon juice 1 Tsp. olive oil 1 clove garlic (more or less - to taste) 1 tsp. ground cumin 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. ground white pepper Hot Sauce of your choosing (optional) To: sproutpeople Sent: Sunday, May 13, 2012 10:08 AM Subject: Re: Can you make microgreens out of chickpeas?  Carolyn: From what I've read, chickpeas are Garbanzos. And Garbanzo beans do not SHOOT UP, they just sprout. My landlord wanted to know if they would SHOOT UP like the pea shoots. From what I read, garbanzos or other beans (like mung beans) don't shoot up (when planted in soil). She has soil, she uses soil. She now does pea shoots. But while looking at the peas on the bottom of the shoots, to all the italians around here they look like chickpeas. No matter what I say, they think I'm sprouting chickpeas. I tried showing them the bag of organic peas. Didn't matter. They all said " no, those are chickpeas " . So one of them asked me " Hey, we have dried chickpeas, can we get them to shoot up like the peas? " So before I go and tell them to plant the Chickpeas in soil I want to tell them what they can expect. Thanks to anyone who can answer this. I watched a video on youtube and the lady said to soak overnight and rinse and drain 2 x a day and you'll have little tails. The people around here don't want little tails, they want SHOOTS. lol melody > > > > When you sprout them you have shoots. Why not just sprout them the way you do alfalfa but do them alone.  >  > Carolyn Wilkerson > > >  > > > To: sproutpeople > Sent: Saturday, May 12, 2012 10:59 PM > Subject: Can you make microgreens out of chickpeas? > > >  > Hi all. My landlord wants to know if she can do chickpeas the same way she does the pea shoots. I looked up chickpeas and they are garbanzo beans and you sprout them. Haven't found a youtube video where you can make shoots. So what do I tell her? > > Thanks so much > > Melody > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
