Falafel
ORT Habonim On August - 17 - 2010
Although falafel is made of chickpeas in Israel, in Lebanon it is usually made of dried faba beans, with a handful of dried chickpeas sometimes thrown in. Faba beans have a wonderful flavor, but if you can’t find them, dried white beans, such as Cannellini or Navy beans, can be used instead.
