  1. I want to add an update to this recipe. The flavoring is right on and you can still make it as is, but it is better if you can use dried chickpeas. The night before, just take 1 cup of dried chickpeas and soak them overnight, then follow the recipe as is, making sure to process them enough. You can also try adding sesame seeds if desired.
