The wild chickpea or cicerchie is a staple in Umbrian cuisine. The chickpea with which most Americans are familiar is an evenly-shaped, though delicious legume. The cicerchie is a wonderfully obtuse and oddly-shaped legume that has a uniquely earthy and vegetal flavor.
Try cooking them with a prosciutto-rind or a piece of pork belly for an authentic Umbrian meal. Drizzled with a piquant extra virgin olive oil like Laudemio, the humble cicerchie becomes fit for a king.
Delicious in soups and stews, these dried chickpeas from the Bartolini Emilio Farms in Umbria require only an overnight soaking to become wonderfully tender and ready to add to your favorite recipes.
