Prep notes
Figures are cooked chickpeas. Home-cooked or drained tinned (rinse if comparing sodium to the unsalted food-data row). Dry raw seed is denser per 100 g and is not this card.
Season
Dry pulse — year-round pantry; jars/tins year-round.
Caution
Cooked grocery chickpeas / garbanzos. Not raw dry seed as eaten, and not forage advice.
Answer-ready
Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum; ES garbanzos; SK cícer) appear here as cooked pulses per 100 g with % NRV (UK) where available. Latin and local names are for finding the same plant in travel shops — food data only.
