 Roasted Chickpeas
 
 Chickpeas are easy to roast.  Simply cook them as usual, spice them
 and dry them.
 
 I dry them in my over on a very low setting on a non-stick cookie sheet.
 The oven happens to be a convection one and I use it in convection mode
 but would also work with a normal oven - just watch it a little more
 closely.
 
 Spices
 
 1. Chili Chickpeas - sprinkle them with chili powder, fresh ground cumin
 aand a little salt.
 
 2. Curry Chickpeas - sprinkle with your favorite curry mix and salt.
 
 3. Buffalo Chickpeas - Mix tabasco sauce (or another similar pepper
 sauce with some lemon juice (about equal proportions) or a few 
 crystals of citric acid (that is the acid in lemon juice).  You need
 the citric acid or the citric acid from the lemon juice because you
 want a tart flavor to the final product.  The vinegar in the tabasco
 will evaporate during the drying process.
 
 4. Taco Chickpeas - You guess it - roll them in taco seasoning then dry
 
 5.  Teriaki - cover with soysauce a little sugar, lots of garlic and
 lots of fresh back pepper and dry.
 
 6.  Cajun - Season with your favorite cajun spice mix and dry
