It is very important for this recipe that you use dried chickpeas and let them soak in a big pot or bowl overnight. Using canned chickpeas will result in a mushy mess that won’t hold together.

Although you could very easily prepare this recipe in a skillet I’m of the opinion that cooking on a flat top griddle is way more enjoyable. I’ve had my Blackstone Griddle for the past five years and haven’t had a single issue with it.

Tofu knots, also known as bean curd knots, is the top layer of pressed tofu that is removed during manufacturing. Like tofu it embraces whatever seasoning you add to it. Where it differs is the texture. Chewy in consistency and similar mouth feel to eating meat. Some vegan restaurants use bean curd sheets to wrap bamboo shoots to make “chicken wings.”
