They won't become tender if cooked with the quick-cook method that works for other dried beans. Regarding skinning them, I never do that. Some of the skins do fall off during cooking, but skinning the beans individually isn't necessary.lisa is cookinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11880633141546012855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043567387409721448.post-84168631276879822182010-03-24T19:28:24.371-05:002010-03-24T19:28:24.371-05:00I've always been antsy about using dried chick...I've always been antsy about using dried chickpeas, only because of the extra work involved. Unlike regular dried beans, I understand that you also have to peel the skins off of chickpeas once you cook them? Is that true? The thought of going through each and every chickpea is what has me rolling my eyes. hah.Carolyn Junghttp://www.foodgal.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043567387409721448.post-69010006086154555982010-03-24T19:05:06.100-05:002010-03-24T19:05:06.100-05:00This is just jam-packed with delicious flavors!
