Recipe by: The Bean Cookbook, by Judith Choate Soak,
rinse, and cook chick peas. Do not allow beans to get
too soft. When tender but still firm, remove from heat
and drain well. Pat dry.

Preheat oven to 375F. Melt butter in medium-sized
saucepan over low heat. Add vegetable oil and garlic
and allow to sit for 5 minutes, keeping warm.

Pour butter into large baking tray with sides. Spread
dried chick peas on tray. Bake 15 minutes, turning
frequently, or until chick peas are golden.

While chick peas are baking, combine spices and herbs.
When chick peas are done, remove from oven and
sprinkle with herbs and spices and toss to coat. Serve
warm.

The cookbook also suggests that other combinations of
herbs and spices would work, for example, a
combination of chili powder, cumin, and cayenne.
