How to Cook Dried Chickpeas Three methods we use in the kitchen; Long soak and simmer on the stovetop , which takes about 10 hours or overnight plus 2 hours Quick soak and simmer on the stove , which takes about 3 hours In the Slow Cooker , 4 hours on high heat or 8 hours on low heat In a pressure cooker (like an Instant Pot), about 1 hour Note: Dried chickpeas triple in size when cooked. So 1 cup of dried chickpeas will make about 3 cups of cooked chickpeas. For the long soak method , add the chickpeas to a large bowl and cover them with several inches of water. As the beans rehydrate, they triple in size β€” adding plenty of water is key. Soak the chickpeas for 8 hours or overnight. After, drain and rinse them well. Add them to a large pot, cover it with several inches of water, and bring everything to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until they reach your desired tenderness, 1 Β½ to 2 hours. When simmering, you can keep the pot lid off or on, but slightly ajar (allowing some steam to escape while cooking). How to Make Hummus Preparation time : 30min , plus overnight soaking | Cooking time : about 1 1⁄2 hours | Serves : 4 Ingredients : 200g Aksoy Dried Chickpeas , 4 garlic cloves, crushed, 1⁄2 tsp ground cumin, 60ml tahini (sesame seed paste), 2 tbsp sesame oil, 60ml lemon juice 1 tbsp ground sumac, 1⁄2 tsp dried chilli (red pepper) flakes, 6 flat-leaf parsley sprigs, 2 tbsp olive oil Drain the soaked Aksoy chickpeas then cook in a pan of simmering water until soft, about 1 1⁄2hours.

In a separate bowl, whisk the tahini, sesame oil and lemon juice, then add to the chickpea mash gradually, making sure all is smooth and well combined. If you prefer amore runny consistency, add a small amount of water to loosen the hummus .

Product Deatils Review: Great Quality - recently purchased the Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) in a 1KG package, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with the quality. As an avid home cook, I love experimenting with different recipes and recently tried making homemade hummus using these chickpeas. The results were phenomenal! The chickpeas were of excellent quality, with a perfect size and texture. They cooked evenly and easily, becoming tender and soft in no time. The flavor was rich and nutty, exactly what I look for in chickpeas. I was able to achieve a smooth and creamy consistency for my hummus, thanks to these high-quality chickpeas. What I particularly appreciate about this product is the generous 1KG package size. It will undoubtedly last me for ages, allowing me to make countless batches of hummus or experiment with other chickpea-based dishes. The value for money is exceptional, and I can confidently say that I will be purchasing this product again in the future. Review: Large, tasty, good value! - These are nice and big, and cook up within half an hour following an overnight soak - usually a good sign that they haven't been sitting in a warehouse for years. I've used them for hummus and pasta e cece so far, and they're very tasty. The size means they'll probably roast well for a snack so I'll be giving that a try next. Decent price considering the quality too. ## Features - βœ”οΈPremium Quality Dried Chickpeas, 10mm in size! - βœ”οΈ Chickpeas are high in protein and make an excellent replacement for meat in vegetarian and vegan diets. - βœ”οΈ Chickpeas ideal for Hummus - βœ”οΈ Rich in fibre, protein and iron - βœ”οΈ Whether you enjoy a creamy Moroccan hummus, a spicy Indian curry or a delicious Spanish soup, chickpeas fill you up without taking a toll on your midsection. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08CYB4284 | | Age Range Description | All ages | | Allergen Information | Contains: Gluten may contain, Soy may contain, Tree nuts may contain | | Best Sellers Rank | 10,740 in Grocery ( See Top 100 in Grocery ) 2 in Chickpeas | | Brand Name | AKSOY | | Coin Variety 1 | Chickpeas | | Container Type | Large, rectangular bag/box | | Country of Origin | Turkey | | Cuisine | Middle Eastern cuisine | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 622 Reviews | | Diet Type | Vegan, Vegetarian | | Item Form | dry | | Item Package Weight | 1.02 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 1 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | AKSOY | | Manufacturer Contact Information | PUSULA LTD Unit 10 Cirrus Court, Huntingdon, PE29 7DL, UK | | Number of Items | 1 | | Protein | 19.2 g | | Size | 1 kg (Pack of 1) | | Specialty | high_in_protein, suitable_for_vegans | | Unit Count | 1.00 count | ## Product Details - **Allergen information:** Contains: Gluten may contain, Soy may contain, Tree nuts may contain - **Brand:** AKSOY - **Item form:** dry - **Item weight:** 1 Kilograms - **Manufacturer:** AKSOY - **Number of items:** 1 - **Package weight:** 1.02 Kilograms - **Protein:** 19.2 g - **Speciality:** high_in_protein, suitable_for_vegans - **Variety:** Chickpeas ## Images ![Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) 1KG - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71s5XBYVo5L.jpg) ![Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) 1KG - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61nuZNmOFkL.jpg) ![Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) 1KG - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71wM5-9gIIL.jpg) ![Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) 1KG - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712FxH2REkL.jpg) ![Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) 1KG - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51PRUWomTTL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Item Display Weight** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Quality *by B***Y on 14 October 2023* recently purchased the Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) in a 1KG package, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with the quality.

Follow cooking advice and see how large they are in comparison to those in tins. *by B***R on 11 January 2026* Superb quality large dry chick peas. Twice the size of tinned varieties once cooked. A big 5 kg bag lasts a long time even if you are someone who uses a lot. I eat them like nuts once cooked. Healthy and very economical. ## Frequently Bought Together - Aksoy Premium Quality Dry Chickpeas XL Size (12mm) 1KG - Bevelini Butter Beans, 500 g - Aksoy Black Turtle Beans 1250GR – Natural, High-Quality Black Beans, Vegan, Gluten-Free, Suitable for Various Recipes, Rich in Protein and Fiber, Perfect Taste --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/227184562-aksoy-premium-quality-dry-chickpeas-xl-size-12mm-1kg](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/227184562-aksoy-premium-quality-dry-chickpeas-xl-size-12mm-1kg) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-05*
