First time maker of falafel and I have a couple of questions. The garbanzo beans (chickpeas) I am soaking seems to have taken a long time to absorb any water. I've soaked them for 36 hours now and they have increased by less then double in size. No real change the first day. Is that normal?
I have only a mini food processor so I will need to do it in batches. In searching on the water absorption problem I saw a question about could you use a grinder but it wasn't really answered. I have a #10 grinder with a 3/16" plate. Has anybody here tried using a meat grinder?
