Help!!! I just made hummous with raw chickpeas...

[Shitemum]

I forgot we hadn't cooked them, they've been soaking since yesterday...

I had already put in olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper, a little plain yoghurt, garlic, cumin and the raw chickpeas when I realised. Haven't put in the tahine yet...

So, do I call it a sprouted chickpea paté?
Add the tahine?
Try and cook it?

I need to know what to do before DP gets back....!

I don't think you can eat raw beans, it might make you ill.

You cannot eat raw chickpeas ifaik, they can poison you.

You can eat sprouted chickpeas which is what these are. They are crunchy and taste nice. Kidney beans have to be cooked.

If you live in the kind of household where sprouted chickpeas are the norm, I doubt your DP will be too shocked whatever you call it

ah, ok, got mixed up then! Still, they won't taste nice raw though will they? How about bunging them in the microwave

Have binned the lot, don't want to risk any tummy upsets, DD2 already a bit funny in the tummy today...

Already regretting it...

What an idiot...

Aw poor you.
