Nutritionally, chickpea flour has the same advantages as chickpea and is superior to wheat flour in a whole range of elements: high fiber content, high protein content, high amount of folic acid, potassium, calcium, and phosphorus, minimal gluten, and high amount of polyphenols, i.e. important antioxidant substances. The main difference between chickpea flour and flour in its use for bread or sweets, cookies, cakes, etc., is that it does not rise, since it contains very little gluten. Also, chickpea flour has high fiber content and absorbs much more liquid than other flours. This is why we increase the volume of liquids in a recipe when we use chickpea flour.
Keep in a cool and dry place.
Mix it with wheat flour for bakery goods and bread.
