Cool beans
ERIC HAESSLER – excellent!
do you think it would be helpful to mention at least once the amount of beans you're using? I fully know how much water and salt and oil to use for what amount of beans?
for something that looks like it was filmed in a restaurant, you should understand that not everyone buys stuff in little individual size packages, that many by dried goods in bulk
I tried and it turned out awful. Terrible experience.
I followed the directions to a T and they came out perfect!!! Chickpeas are going to be a pantry staple in my home from now own, thanks ☺️
I just purchased Healthy and Delicious Instant Pot by America's Test Kitchen. The directions don't make sense. All the pre-cook instructions are the same but the chart says to cook the chick peas for 1 minute and then do a natural release. The cook directions in the copy are totally incorrect. Says to turn off the instant pot when done and quick release (except for French green beans). Based on these inconsistent directions, I thought I'd turn to YouTube. I'll be trying Eric's time. Seems a lot more realistic! Looks like they need to make corrections in the next edition of the book. If you own it, don't follow the bean chart directions for any of the beans.
I LOVE the Palouse chickpeas grown in Palouse, WA. They are far superior to grocery store chickpeas, even those from Whole Foods. I order them from Amazon.
打蛋器攪拌 加油
You must add salt bro
dont use this method. these will end up chalky and semi hard.
if you want chickpeas that are creamy when you bite into it you have to use baking soda to help and cook for much longer.
that was good until you put a ton of calories of oil…. jesus why ruin such a healthy food…
Thanks for the presentation. Incomplete instructions for using the instant pot is too common, but here the gentleman does a great job of walking the novice through the proper steps. Thanks again.
Too much water
For goodness sake. If you’re going to soak them overnight what’s the point in using the presssure pot?
Great video. Clearly demonstrated. Thank you.
He used 8 lb of water to cook 1 lb of raw chickpeas! They only absorb 1 lb of water, and can be cooked in 1 lb or less of water (only need to cover the soaked chickpeas). You may need to set the timer for 10 min instead of 6. Some of these recipes are just crazy, with no explanation given about the need for so much wastage.
I need more ERIC HAESSLER InstantPot Recipes please!!! Thank you for all your tips, it's very helpful for us NOOBS.
Why do the ratios and instructions in this video differ from those printed in ATK's "Pressure Cooker Perfection"?
You gave very good instructions. I followed your recipe exactly and my chickpeas came out perfect. Thank you!
Excellent presentation skills
thank you so much for this tutorial help! I'm going to buy a 50lb bag of dried garbanzo beans now 😄 falafel, hummus, salad, aquafaba meringues, roasted chickpea snacc, the sky's the limit 😍
Really Perfect cooked chickpeas, thank you so very much.
Best recipe ever! I love my garbanzo beans. No better way to cook them. Thanks!😊
Keep using instant pots because we have them. Thank you
Really helpful video. I have never tried brine for beans. I hope this makes the chickpeas have a better texture.
WooooOOOOOOOAH that'salottabeansss
Do not drain the beans over a sink, drain them in a pot — you are throwing away vegetarian stock.
Can the cooking liquid be retained for uses like the aquafaba from canned chickpeas?
6 minutes is no where long enough to cook garbanzos in a pressure cooker!!!
Great energy! I like that he's excited but not too much as to seem pretentious. Thank You!
Thanks Eric great job!!
I tried this!!! OMG the chick peas was great and so fast!!!….As a vegan chick peas and beans are a staple. This and the red bean tutorial have allowed me to enjoy those beans so much more….keep them coming.I use some of your other techniques but I use egg replacers and other alternates for non vegan recipes. You guys are doing a wonderful job!!
Great job on the presentation, Eric! You inspired me to snag some dried chickpeas today. I'll brine them overnight and cook them tomorrow. You made it look like it is: simple but tasty. And getting some bean cooking confidence has been a goal of mine. I look forward to your next video. Pay no attention to the nitpickers. Haters gonna hate, as they say.
Don't use this guy again
Wow only 6 minutes?! I usually cook mine on high for 35 minutes. 6 seems like not enough time, but I’ll give it a shot!
