Tips:
- If you use dried garbanzo beans, soak them in water overnight and then boil them for 1 ½ hours.
- If you used canned ones, drain them.
- To peel them, place them in a bowl, add boiling water and 1 ½ tsp baking soda. Let them sit for a few minutes, then rinse under cold running water, rubbing them between your hands to loosen up the skin. Once peeled, place them in a bowl.
