Question:
If I cook my own chickpeas in an insta pot, can I use that liquid in the same way?
— Nathalie Strong
Answer:
Yes, you absolutely can. Natalie. Um, that same protein rich water, uh, basically is, that's what aquafaba is. It's all the, the proteins coming out of the beans and going into that water. So you can absolutely use that in the exact same way. In fact, um, freezing it is actually a really good way to save it too. So even if you're using canned, you know, you can just pour it into an ice cube tray and then freeze the aquafaba to be able to use it later as well. But, uh, cooking your own chickpeas, you end up with, uh, aquafaba all the time.
