Steps:
- Rinse the chickpeas and pick out any stones.
- Pile them into a slow cooker, add the water (or broth), and salt.
- Pro-tip: pre-heat the water (or broth) in the microwave to give the cooking a little kick-start.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 3½ - 4 hours or on LOW for 6 - 7 hours. Check the beans at 3 hours if cooking on HIGH, and at 5 hours if cooking on LOW if you prefer your beans to be al dente. Different slow cookers cook at different temperatures, which will affect the cook time.
- Drain the chickpeas. Store in the refrigerator for 3 - 4 days, or in the freezer for up to 6 months. Completely cool and dry the chickpeas before freezing.

HOW TO MAKE DRIED CHICKPEAS IN A CROCK-POT
It was a garage sale bargain I couldn't resist. So after all these years, I am first using a crockpot--and one of the first things I made was this--and these chickpeas are outrageously good. No more canned chickpeas for me.

Steps:
- Rinse and drain chickpeas in cold water. Pick out any stones and dark brown chickpeas.
- Put drained chickpeas into your crock pot. Add water and salt.
- Cook on High for 2-3 hours or until soft. Depending on your tastes and what you are going to use them for you can remove when slightly firm or cook until they are very soft.
- When done, carefully pour into a colander, being careful to use oven mitts to handle the crock - it will be hot. Drain and rinse well.
- Chickpeas will keep for about 2 days in the fridge. They will keep longer if made into hummus. They also freeze quite well.
- To freeze chickpeas rinse and drain them thoroughly. Leave to drain well for about 15 minutes. Spread chickpeas onto a baking tray, making sure they don't touch one another. Put into freezer. When frozen, you can transfer the chickpeas to a freezer bag or plastic container for more permanent storage.
