Folate That Survives the Pot
A cup of chickpeas boiled from dry carries about 282 mcg DFE of folate — roughly 71% of the 400 mcg DFE Daily Value. Per 100 g the cooked bean holds 172 mcg DFE, down from 557 mcg DFE dry mostly because the seed has taken on water.
How to choose and store Chickpeas (Dry)
