chikpeas have turned gray

[eric1984]

hello everyone,

I have soaked chickpeas in water for a bout a day and a half, thus sprouting them, then i dried them a bit and put them in the fridge. some of them turned gray, though thier texture and taste were usual. Any ideas to why that might have happend and if it is still o.k to eat them?

Thanks ahead,

Eric

Hi Eric ~ I'm just giving my 'best guess' - but if they taste okay, I'd go ahead and eat them. I've noticed when I soak cashew pieces (for a recipe) and leave them longer than a couple hours, they turn a really weird color too, they're totally water logged - but they work just fine. *Ü*
