Does anyone know if your standard bulk or prepackaged (not canned, obviously) garbanzo beans are raw? And are they digested well after just soaking? I am really not open to the idea of sprouting beans...

I just made this. Whoa! I put too much jalapeno...but it's got one heck of a kick! Unfortunately I only had a can of organic unsalted garbanzo beans and no tahini and really wanted some....so, I used it. I am going to dip by carrot crackers into it! Thanks!

Hi! I made this and I like it a lot!! I am not a big fan of tahini - acquired taste perhaps? And I had been enjoying a fat free hummus using canned chickpeas, so I was delighted to find this. The only difference I had was that I didn't have any jalapenos - so I added some of my pico de gallo - which I am making constantly and eating with everything!

is this raw? I hope so....
