When they’re green and sweet like peas, chickpeas (garbanzos) are so delicious, eaten raw or cooked. I’ll show you how easily I grew them in my zone 7 home garden, and how to know the right time to harvest them.

We Indians eat fresh chickpeas in curries and also in winters we roast them in outdoor fire with peels on. I cook fresh chickpeas pulao every winter. Loved this episode, lots of love 💓💓
You guys lead where we follow! So glad you enjoyed watching.
@Monu The smell is so fragrant of those fresh produce, right?
@@TrueFoodTV All indians love Food religiously . We have developed atleast 100 different types of cuisines in india
@@TrueFoodTV yeah I have to say Indian people are on another level when it comes to cooking and food. Any chef knows how hard cooking Indian food is because of how complex it is.
@monu matoliya .. Do you eat the pods? :)
YES!!! I'm Mexican and steamed fresh green chickpeas with chili powder and lime juice was indeed my signature after-school snack lol! The best of the best even just steamed alone are delicious! And nutritious!
Could you tell how to prepared i am look for alternative green chickpea dish thank you.
Ooohhh...I'm going to try that. Gracias!
Love green chickpeas raw, roster, sautéed, stir fried, curried and such. It’s delicious in every form 💚
In my Mexican family we always steam or bake them fresh. I never heard of people drying them out until I found out chickpeas and garbanzos are the same thing lol
Never stop making videos! I love them! It's such a nice blend of novelty and science and it's so much better than the mainstream content you find on the cooking internet. I love it!
I love chick pea, but I had never thought to plant it, even to eat greens. Thank you to open my mind a little bit more.
Perfect timing of this video. I was inspired to finally try growing chickpeas this year, after watching your other video, and living in the neighboring territory with same climate. My daughter and I eat sooooo many chickpeas in our vegan cooking. One thing I found- The rabbits were loving me this spring before the pods appeared for planting them such delicious new greens, as they mowed the tops. The plants recovered, and are at the stage in your video. Thank you.♡ Sending much love from Washington state. ♡♡♡
Super interesting. Thanks for doing this episode! I'm going to share this with my niece who is a gardener and a foodie as well. Next year, I'll try this plant again. I did it last year, but had no idea what I was doing. It was my first year gardening.
U can soak the dried ones in water. Fry, boil, roast. Mix them together with diced onions, ginger, salt. Put some chat masala on it. Put a drizzle of mustard oil or lemon juice. Goes well with beer and whiskey. We call it Chakna.
I’ve grown them a few times. The green ones are super yummy. Even better than fresh peas, which I love.
So happy you like them too, Michele!
You convinced me. I'm growing chickpeas next spring. Thanks for the idea Nicole!
In northern part of India we make curry of its green leaves when the plant is in its early age, which is also good for its growth. and you can also find its green plants in local markets during the season to have it raw straight from the plans. Love it
Looking forward to more “How dose it grow” episodes but the gardening episodes are great too.
Shhhh, don't tell anyone... but the next video will be a HDIG!
@@TrueFoodTV Don’t worry you’re secret is safe with me 🤭
Nicole you are just too great of a saleslady and please be right about.this.
I did the no tilt like you and Charles Dowding love it for my tomato and peppers , also almost no poison spray but only dust the trunk of my zucchini squash, and it's working great.
First season ever (70 old) I picked bush beans 3 times and almost no bug bites or poison
Thank you for the teaching
You’re fillin’ and killin’ those jeans mama.
I was once in Chicago and there is a Latin supermarket that was selling fresh green chickpeas, I bought about two pounds.
They are absolutely delicious 😋 .
The cool thing about it is that the pods that contain the chickpeas are full of air and when you press on them they make a popping sound the kids love it 😀.
I'm so glad you tried them too! Agree, the popping is quite fun!
In Mexico, we can't wait for garbanzo season to have them tender and roasted or have a bunch per person to feast as an afternoon snack.
Thank you this was great, I'm growing them for the first time here in the UK x
Hey Nicole,
I’ll be honest with you I never knew chic peas was grown that way .
Yet I learned so much from your channel being helpful tips and information.
Love this! You give new and helpful information every few seconds. You're not one of those RUclipsrs that just talk in circles. Thank you very much I will be planting some of my own Chickpeas🤗
You are so good at this information on Garbanzo/chick peas episode, I have learned a lot today🌱
Hey Nicole! Green chickpeas are the best thing ever! In India, we get it in winters and I make sure I eat it every single day till they last the season!
I'm so happy that you discovered it there too. No one should miss out on the heavenly taste of fresh chickpeas! :) :D
Also we sometimes roast the pods on a pan till lightly charred from the outside and with a bit of salt, they taste amazing that way too!
I couldn't agree with you more! And now I MUST try them roasted -- I can imagine how delicious they are! Thank you so much for the tip! xx
Thank you so much for this video! I am looking forward to growing chickpeas this year.
I love her and her enthusiasm for what she does.
I want to start growing chick peas because they are so versatile. So glad to have found your channel. I love the way you speak!
This was awesome. Thank you.❤
I did not realize that you can eat them raw. I've only eaten canned ones. Great video. Thank you for sharing. Love and God Bless 🤗🙏
I grew chick peas this year. Some are drying out on the bush, some are still green. I'm going to harvest this weekend. Oh and you're ADORABLE.
Soil will often have Rhizobia bacteria present already. Inoculating certainly gives a boost, making sure the plants have access to the bacteria immediately (and the right strain) but it doesn't mean that your plants won't be fixing nitrogen at all if you don't inoculate. Fixed nitrogen will not increase in the soil unless you terminate the crop prior to fruiting and incorporate into soil -- virtually all of the extra nitrogen is going into the seeds.
Very informative. I never knew a thing about chickpeas...though I've always enjoyed them in stew. Thanks. Great video!
So beautifully done.
Thank you.
what a coincidence! I had chickpea salad with potato today 😊. Really enjoy watching your videos as those always make me curious and appreciate all about plants, fruits 😊😊😊
Sounds like a great meal! So glad you enjoyed watching.
I grew them this year, too, and after seeing your video on how chickpeas grow. So thanks for that!
Very informative and pleasantly explained. Thanks for sharing. Happy growing.
Us kurds we eat em raw right from the bush!! It's so yum especially in spring time it's called farika nok
Amazing teaching! Thank you
Awesome video - thank you! Growing up on a farm, I now remember we 'lads' would munch on fresh chickpeas as a snack. I'd forgotten about that so thanks for the trip down memory lane! Stay safe - be well - many blessings.
How lucky you were! Thanks for sharing that memory!
Thanks for this video!
Soo interesting! Thank you!!
The seeds are actually called, "Desi Chana". The "Kabuli" variant is the big off white ones. I actually have been growing chickpeas in my home garden for a while for its leaves, but still I was watching you 🙈 You are so fun to watch.
Thanks for the video Nicole, will definitely be giving chickpeas a go in my garden. It looks like you've replaced all your old wooden beds with metal ones. Will you be posting a video about this? My wooden beds are rotting and seem to be harbouring lots of insects, so am considering replacing them, and I'm keen to see how that went for you.
Hello & Many thanks for the vid ☺️ love your homegrown vids.. all the way from nz
Cheers, Geneva! Thanks for watching all the way from NZ!
The leaves are tangy. They can be used in salad, Dal's(soups) etc.
So cool!!! 😀 I really want to grow them now!
Another great content Miss Nicole. Very informative.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
I’ve literally grown chickpeas for the first time this year! 😅 I was surprised when I ate them unripe as a joke but was surprised when they tasted sweet 🤣
wow thank you for this! dried are so hard to find period these days and I love falafel --thank you again!
Thanks for the video- I had thrown some chickpeas in this year, and had no clue about eating them fresh or harvesting. Thanks!
I harvested my first lot of chickpeas this summer as well
Just superb
so beautiful.....love everthing about this show........in detail everything...keep growing....
I am planting chickpeas for the first time as I watch this video! Inspired! :D
Love your videos keep it up...
Excellent video. Growing Garbonzos for the first time. Thank you!
Hi Nicole, you are awesome, thank you!
I also love the method of planting a diverse variety of food plants and then let the ecosystem do its thing. :D
Another great video. Thank you
I grow black chickpeas too! I also grow a traditional tan variety. I've found that the black ones aren't as productive as the tan but I love them both!
Wonderful Nicole! We get green chickpeas or Bengal Gram ( another variety) seasonally once or twice a year. We roast them while still on a bunch and used to sit in a circle open each pod and enjoy them. We also make a veg curry with potato 😁
That sounds so wonderful. It's a great activity for bringing everyone together, isn't it?
That original chickpea video got me watching your channel. So glad you did this one.
I love that episode, Elena -- was one of my favorites to film. So glad it led you to start watching! Thank you!
Great video. Nice garden. Great presentation.
Love your video
I was actually interested in watching this video because I happen to be sprouting about 12 chickpeas right now. They have several layers of leaves on them and when I get a little bit more route, I will plant them into my raised garden. It’s awful hot here in Florida, so I don’t know if they will survive but we will see how they do.
I'm growing chickpeas for the first time and they are growing really good. Didn't know about eating them fresh like that. I was growing them for dry. But now I'm going to harvest for fresh eating. They are a very fluffy type plant.
It's sweet and refreshing
Wow my favorite. Yes, you gave me an idea for my next cooking video.
Yay!!
Hey, Nicole!! Have you tried growing chickpea microgreens? Not only are they delicious, but they are beautiful!!
Our sweet Nicole🥰🥰 love chickpeas fresh, boiled, roasted… love your presentation even more 😍😍
Thank you dear Iman
Wow! I have great memories growing up in Jordan; roasting the green chickpeas over open fire. So so good. On a side note i was so excited when I saw them at the Mexican store... Truly yummy.
Your channel is great i completely agree with you
thank you!!
Hello from India!!!!
You can eat the soft leaves of chickpea plants too. It's curry in pulses tastes very good. They are little sour.
@EdwardTu79 The Mixed Content Creator
No not really. It's sour to taste. You can actually see the recipe 'chane ka saag' if you wanna try. But only soft topmost leaves are edible. Not the mature one.
Thanks for the lovely video
thanks for watching!
now will have to try some fresh chickpeas. thx.
You can eat lots of beans at various stages. If you've accidentally let your green beans go too long, but they're not dry yet, try removing them from the pods and adding them to soups, the results are much smoother and creamier than beans that have been cooked from dry.
Pea and bean shoots are great in salads and sandwiches. Just pick the fresh new growth from the top of the stem to the next leaf node down and eat stem and all. You only pick the tops because the further down you go, the tougher and more fibrous the stem gets. It's basically a more mature version of bean sprouts. If you're growing peas or beans for shoots, you can grow them much closer together too.
Loved this episode. You are very engaging and charming.
Fresh chickpeas are super delicious indeed 😋
This was really interesting
In Bangladesh we generally eat the black chickpeas. These have more concentrated flavor than garbanzo kind of chickpeas. Garbanzo is larger in size, most interestingly we call them “kabli/kabuli” kind of chickpeas!
Sometimes I even feel like the black ones have a little more harder texture than the lighter one, but I am not 100% sure.
Thanks for the video, I have never tried (or seen) green chickpeas! And I have never imagined chickpeas will grow in my area (zone 7b).. I’ll definitely try next year! 😍
Your story telling ability is out of this world.
Loved this episode on growing chickpeas! This is exactly what I’d been looking for, thank you!!!
In Pakistan, fresh chick peas are commonly sold in the market and making curry of fresh chick peas with lamb mince tastes so awesome. Do try!
I love your way of explanation and your voice. You are really cool and gorgeous. Stay blessed!
Really do appreciate your videos, you're a great host.. Anyways, i was wondering about the lectines, is these a problem in chickpeas? some different sorts of chickpeas or is the content higher or lower in fresh chickpeas?
Every time I go to Turkey I ask fresh chickpeas 😅 they are delicious
i have loved chickpeas my entire life
I'll have to keep an eye out for these....the fresh produce place up in Newtown Square PA that I shop at will sometimes have them in, but I've never
bothered to try them. Thanks for the tip and the video
Oh, do come back and tell me how you like them if you end up getting them!
@@TrueFoodTV I will!
The moment I saw you put that fresh chickpea on that farm, I knew you wouldn't be able to forget it. And here you are, raising your own chickpea.
People actually sell fresh chickpeas in Central Turkey at neighbourhood bazaars and I loved them. It's been so long since I've last seen fresh chickpeas. ☹
Awesome video
You can still eat the young shoots of a mature plant that has seeds. It tastes great
We are growing these for the first time this year! We want to maximize our harvest in any way, but were looking to keep a stash of dried chickpeas on hand.
Do you know if we can pick them green and then dry them inside? Or would we need to just let them dry on the plant?
Planted several in the UK. greenhouse and garden. stems 2cm now.
Try pan roasting them to almost a semi steam where some of the outer pods blacken out a little. Pour salt on the outside and eat them like sunflowers.
Great tip!! Thank you so much!!
Love it, Now that we are not allowed to travel, not sure when I can get chance to eat these fresh
I eat sprouts of chickpeas, with some chopped cucumbers, chopped carrots, chopped tomatoes, , some coriander leaves, adding lemon juice and adding a lil bit rock salt!
Here in India, we really eat a lot of chickpeas, which is full protein, vitamins and minerals.
There are many ways to eat them, you can roast them and take as snack with herbal tea!
AMAZING VIDEO!👍
Chickpeas are awesome
My favorite you tube channel.
Thank you! 🤗
@@TrueFoodTV you welcome.
Nice to see👍👍👍
Good video sister I like for show Thank you for sharing
Hey Nicole!!!!! If you liked green chickpeas then you should really try out green wheat. It's far more sweeter and tastier. I'm sure you'll love that too. Even those are eaten and sold in the states of Maharashtra and Gujarat in India.
Ohhhh, tell me more, Laxmi!! How do you prepare it? Or are you eating the wheat berries raw?
@@TrueFoodTV We cut the kernel along with stem when the spikes/head of kernel start turning golden but aren't completely dry. Roast the whole kernel over fire and then separate the husk by rubbing with hands. It could be eaten as it is/ make salad / just add a little sugar and sev (snack made of gram flour) and serve. Even sorghum is consumed this way and also as fritters.
Also try boiled groundnuts. When the groundnuts are harvested we just take a batch of it (straight from filed without drying it), clean the pods and boil the whole pods with a little turmeric and salt. After it has cooled down we just eat it right away.
Yeah green chickpeas are heavenly, especially if you light roast them with the pods on. That's how we eat it in India. The end result is a warm, soft, even sweeter chickpea its just heavenly! Some people use a bit of black-salt afterwards, but you can eat them anyway you want -- plain, salted, seasoned, mix-in-salads! Thanks Nicole!
Started looking for seed locally as soon as I saw this.
In Mexico they're called garbanzos. Fondest memories as a kid was to run to the corner at night to get a big fresh bag of these, sauteed in lemon and salt🤤🤤
What do you use to inoculate the plants?
