What is Turkish Gram?

Turkish gram (Cicer arietinum var. kabuli or larger-seeded chickpea), also called large chickpea or kabuli chana, is a legume with a larger seed size and thinner hull than Indian desi chickpea. Despite the name 'Turkish,' the crop is widely grown across India โ€” particularly in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and parts of Maharashtra โ€” alongside production in Turkey, Australia, and Canada. Turkish gram is exported for both fresh-use (hummus, refried preparations) and processing (flour, roasting). India is among the world's largest chickpea producers (~9โ€“10 million tonnes) and a growing exporter of kabuli varieties.
