Ingredients
4
ounces
(one heaping 1/2 cup) dried chickpeas
a.k.a. Garbanzo beans
2
cups
water
1/2
teaspoon
kosher salt
Diamond brand
Instructions
Place the chickpeas, water, and salt in the Instant Pot.
Select the “Bean/Chili” setting and set the time for 15 minutes.
Select the “Delay Start” setting and set the time delay for 12 hours.
When the cooking program ends, let the pressure release naturally for at least 15 minutes.
Open the pot. Use the chickpeas right away or let cool to room temperature, then store them in their liquid, refrigerated, for 3 to 4 days.
Notes
If you have a regular-sized (6 or 8-quart) Instant Pot, double the recipe to get evenly cooked beans.
