Penelas Chickpeas hold their shape well once heated through, keeping a firm bite even after a good simmer. Inside the tin, the chickpeas have a creamy, slightly nutty texture that works whether they are served whole or blended smooth. These chickpeas suit everyday cooking. Stir them into a chana masala or a vegetable curry, where they soak up spices without turning mushy. Add them to a winter stew or soup for extra body, or toss them through a salad with chopped onion, tomato and a squeeze of lemon. Blitzed with tahini, garlic and lemon juice, they make a smooth homemade hummus. For best results, drain and rinse the chickpeas before use to remove the liquid from the tin. This gives a cleaner flavour, especially in salads or dips. If a recipe calls for a thicker sauce, such as a curry or stew, the reserved liquid can be stirred in a little at a time. Once opened, transfer any unused chickpeas to a covered container and keep them in the fridge. Use within a couple of days for the best texture. Penelas Chickpeas are a straightforward store-cupboard staple, ready to bulk out a curry, finish a salad, or form the base of a simple dip.
