Cook's Notes:
Your potato masher needs to have enough surface area on its business end to crush the chickpeas. Rest the bowl or pot on a cutting board or towel to protect your counter or work surface. Don't use a non-stick pot because you'd probably damage its surface. The recipe can be doubled.
Variation: Substitute cayenne, to taste, for the crushed red pepper flakes.
