Guest guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Hi Maureen and all, There is a great web page that reviews all the different types of grain mills available. She describes the good and bad characteristics of each type. Once you have read each one and decided which kind is best for you, you can go to google and do research on which brand is the best of that type: www.suegregg.com/resources/grainmillreviews.htm bb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 I wonder why it is so hard to find Chickpea/Garbanzo flour. I was trying to buy some thru my natural food co-op and they didn't even have it. Those are some really hard beans to grind. I wouldn't use a coffee grinder for them. Oh I love hemp seeds on my yogurt too........ Yum. Put them in muffins as well as those salads that you enjoy them on. I'm glad Donna recommended them too. I bought some on amazon.com for a great price. Much cheaper than the health foods carry them. It was in a pack of 3 bags and I just keep them in my freezer.

It sure would be nice to try the next time I run across a recipe that calls for something like chickpea flour Peace, Maureen PS I don't think I ever thanked you for your hemp seed nut recommendation. I think my mistake when I first tried them years ago was just eating them plain, but I *love* them on salads now-- Thanks so much!!

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 I grind them in my Vitamix with no problem, and regularly make socca, a form of chickpea pancakes. Here is the link to the recipe: http://whatimcookingnow.blogspot.com/2006/07/curried-vegetables-over-chickpea.ht\ ml Denise - wwjd Friday, May 11, 2007 8:58 AM Re: Maureen--grain mills I wonder why it is so hard to find Chickpea/Garbanzo flour.
