This type of chickpea, which is called ram chickpea due to its recessed and recessed shape resembling a ram, is a type of chickpea that stays on a sieve with a hole opening of 8mm. Produced in Karaman and Konya regions, this type of chickpea is especially suitable for hummus-style appetizers and crushed chickpea dishes.
Chickpea is primarily consumed as a dry pulse. The shelled peas are eaten as snack or vegetable. The seed husks can be used as a feed for animals. Chickpeas are also commonly cooked and ground into a paste to produce the popular dish, hummus.
