I have two, sealed, 1 pound bags of dried chickpeas which have been stored in a bottom drawer of my kitchen, with a “best used by” date of April/2021. I usually soak these pups overnight, and make falafel out of them with onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro, and some dry spices.
The only thing I see that “may” be wrong with them is that they “might” be smaller than I remember (but that is a big “might”).
Is there any reason I need to worry about using these?
