Of all the foods that surround your kitchen, surely the chickpeas They manage to gain prominence, since with them you can make cakes, salads or they are the perfect complement to a snack or a snack omelet to add protein to the body. In this note we are going to tell you what you can do with the pea juice that comes in a can.
Chickpeas
Generally when you finish cooking with the chickpeas, you throw away the jars and the liquid from them too. But we are going to tell you how you can change this and give it another use. This pea liquid is also called ‘aquafaba’ and many cooks consider it very good for vegans or people allergic to eggs, as it might replace it. According to studies, it was learned that the thermal cooking treatment that these legumes receive is carried out in a prior soaking process. “It improves the nutritional quality of the seeds,” said professional Mª Purificación González González, professor of food science in the Area of Nutrition and Food Science at the CEU San Pablo University in Madrid.
Eggs
The liquid of the chickpeas They can be a perfect replacement for eggs in many recipes. Above all, it is perfect for a vegan and vegetarian diet that does not eat eggs. One of the most common uses of this liquid is in mayonnaise: instead of adding egg white, a tablespoon of the chickpea liquid is added, which serves as an emulsifier. It can be used in all recipes that use eggs: meringues, sponge cakes, pancakes, macaronsmousses, ice creams, cakes, biscuits, etc.
Use pea juice
Another option for you to enjoy at home is to use this liquid from legumes, such as peas, chickpeas or beans to even make a chocolate mousse. You have to extract the topping liquid from the jar of legumes and reserve it for dessert. Just as is done with the egg white, in this case you also have to beat it until it is stiff. You’ll have to be careful with how much sugar you put in that mousse to make it healthy, of course.
