Description
The chickpea probably originated in the Near East, where three wild annual varieties of chickpea still exist. Its cultivation and consumption date back to at least the 9th century. The chickpea is particularly popular in India and Muslim countries. It is an integral part of many traditional dishes in the Middle East, Egypt, North Africa, Spain and Sicily. It was Spanish explorers who spread its cultivation throughout the world, particularly in Latin America.
