I hate chickpea skins - is there any nutrition in them or can I safely chuck them away?

You're going to peel chickpeas???? How??

Very slowly, one by one. You're supposed to do this for proper hummus. I use a stick blender instead

I wanted to change my name to Inigo Montoya to discuss chick pea peeling, but the name's already taken
