This may not apply everywhere but my local Asian grocery shop is MILES cheaper than the supermarkets for stuff like chickpeas, beans etc. they also have a huge selection of beans, pulses, gram flour etc, and very cheap decent coriander bunches.
Maybe it's just a really good shop but it might be worth checking out if there is a local equivalent near you.
supermarkets suck ass in many ways.
i use a local asian minimarket type place in beeston.
most of the stuff i buy there is half price of the supermarkets.
Asian supermarkets are great.......!
Every herb spice and condiment known to man a also always cheaper and open at 9pm on a Sunday night.
They even sell cans of Malta.
Oh everyone else already knew. 🙂
are the spicy chick pea snacks they sell in Asian supermarkets OK to have on the idiet?
If they just have chick pea flour in them technically yes IMO, but I still don't reckon eating loads is a good idea. some of them have other types of flour in as well though.
they are whole chickpeas,think the are fried in spices,very nice for a snack.
Ah I thought you meant Bombay mix type stuff which is made from gram flour (mostly). They sound good, might try and get some. 🙂
similar to bombay mix but just chickpeas,very addictive
Yep, just one of those little things that so many people aren't aware of.
One of our favs is a local store run by a crazy little Italian guy. Packed with herbs, spices, oils, nuts, pulses, flours, grains, sauces etc - all at ridiculously low prices. Plus he does custom blends like Ras-el-Hanout.
