鹰嘴豆是什么

The chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is a legume, named for the little beak-like point on the seed; in English it's also called the garbanzo bean. It has starred in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and South Asian diets for thousands of years — hummus, falafel, and the chana of Indian curries are all chickpeas.

Nutritionally, a chickpea is a 'carb + protein + fiber' combo: a bit over half is carbohydrate (50-58%), protein is 15-22% (high for a staple), plus plenty of fiber, folate, iron, magnesium, and potassium. Its fat is low and mostly unsaturated.

It has grown fast worldwide in recent years — riding the plant-protein wave, and because it's cheap, shelf-stable, and versatile. Below we unpack the three things most worth understanding: whether the protein really counts, why it's blood-sugar friendly, and the hummus / canned pitfalls.
