Aquafaba/Chickpea Liquid

Raminahobbin · 2015-06-17 10:40:27

So, apparently this is a thing. Whisking the liquid from a can of chickpeas into egg-white like consistency and then making meringue :eek: Anyone try it? Nobody seems to know how it works, but it does. I'll give it a go at the weekend, although I'm highly dubious! More info on this Facebook group.

Only one way to find out I wonder does is work with dried chickpea cooking water - rarely use canned beans unless it's an emergency.

I've seen chickpea water in recipes too, it was for mousse I think.
