I feel like I should know this, but I can't quite figure it out. When

a recipe calls for 3 cups of lentils or 4 cups of garbanzo beans, it

refers to the cooked volume. But different beans and legumes cook up

differently. Seems like it's anywhere from 1 to 2 through 1 to 4. So

I'm never sure how much of the dry ingredient to put in the pot to

get the cooked volume the recipe calls for.

 

Is there a chart somewhere that tells me what amounts to put in to

get what yield?

 

Many thanks,

 

Mike
