Chickpea vs. garbanzo

by Cookthink

Is it a chickpea or a garbanzo bean? It depends on where your culinary loyalties lie. If you're with the French and Italians, you may think of them as chiche and ceci, respectively. If you're with the Spanish, then you may know them as garbanzos.  Around here, we prefer the punchier English name of chickpea. Either way, we're all talking about the same thing: a fiber-and protein-rich legume with a slightly chestnutty flavor.
