CHICK PEA

My hubby loves to eat hummous with bread and this is the first thing that he learns to make when he first came here. Hummous is a dipping made from chick pea and other spices and I think it is a Middle Eastern food because we usually had it at Arab Restaurant. It tastes good and I will definitely post it when we make one. Today I just feel like eating boiled chick pea. My late mother use to boil the chickpea and serve it as a snack. During that time, we never had chips or fries or Nachos or Kettle Chips at home. It is too expensive for us to buy. This is the first time I make boiled chickpea and it taste yummy....
