At Prakritii Organics, we only get our organic white chana from certified chemical-free farms where synthetic pesticides or artificial fertilizers are not used at all during any stage of cultivation. Chickpeas, when grown conventionally, are not only sprayed with pesticides but may also be chemically treated to preserve them post-harvest.

Health Benefits & Nutrition

Organic white chana is a top-notch protein-packed legume from an Indian pantry as it contains about 19 grams of plant-based protein per 100 grams of dry chickpeas. Such a level of protein makes it a highly useful staple food for daily consumption in vegetarian and vegan households that require a well-thought-out meal plan for sufficient protein intake.
Besides, the high fibre content, both soluble and insoluble, promotes healthy digestion, nourishes good gut bacteria, and has been linked with significant lowering of LDL cholesterol levels after prolonged consumption as a part of a legume-rich diet. White chana is a considerable source of folate, iron, calcium, phosphorus, zinc, and B-vitamins, which are essential for bone mineralisation, blood formation, immune function, and energy metabolism. Furthermore, its low glycaemic index ensures that it gradually releases glucose into the bloodstream, thus making it a preferable carbohydrate to people who have blood sugar issues as compared to refined grains or high-GI foods.

How to Use & Storage

Keep the white chana in an airtight glass or food-grade container and place it in a cool, dry, and dark place away from moisture and heat.
If kept properly, dry white chana can last up to 12 months.
Always soak them before cooking; this will not only help in reducing cooking time but also enhance digestibility.
Store cooked chickpeas in a sealed container in the fridge and use within 3-4 days.
Do not keep soaked and uncooked chickpeas at room temperature for more than 24 hours, especially in warm weather.

How long should I soak organic white chana before cooking?

Organic white chana should be soaked in cold water for 8–10 hours or overnight before cooking - the chickpeas will roughly double in size during soaking. After soaking, drain the soaking water, add fresh water, and pressure cook for 5–6 whistles on medium heat until the chickpeas are completely tender when pressed between two fingers.

What is the protein content of organic white chana?

Organic white chana (kabuli chickpeas) provides approximately 19 grams of plant-based protein per 100 grams of dry chickpeas, making it one of the most protein-rich legumes commonly used in Indian cooking. It is also high in dietary fibre, iron, folate, calcium, phosphorus, and B-vitamins, offering a comprehensive nutritional profile for vegetarian diets.

Is organic white chana the same as black chana?

No - white chana (kabuli chickpeas) and black chana (kala chana) are different varieties of chickpea. White chana is larger, lighter in colour, creamier in texture, and milder in flavour. Black chana is smaller, darker, firmer, and more nutritionally dense with a higher iron content. Both are nutritious but used in different traditional preparations.

Can organic white chana be used to make hummus?

Yes - white chana is the standard ingredient for hummus. Blend thoroughly cooked, cooled organic white chana with tahini (sesame paste), lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, and salt until completely smooth in a food processor or high-powered blender. Adding a little of the chickpea cooking water helps achieve a creamier consistency.
