Hi Belinda. Your organised! Precooking and freezing 2 kg chickpeas! I think about doing that every time I soak and cook but havn't gotten around to looking up how to freeze....Do you leave liquid around the chickpeas...or leave them loose?

Hi Tricia,

I drain then measure them out into 2 cup lots, it is at that point I freeze them.

2 Cups is a bit more than a tin but personally I don't mind a few more chickpeas than the recipe suggests.
