I légumi Borgo Fiorito Cannellini

Dried Cannellini

Borgo Fiorito which is an Italian food brand specialising in authentic high quality Italian “legumi secchi” is the Italian word for dried legumes or pulses, which includes items like beans, lentils, and chickpea. For a food connoisseur, when dried cannellini beans are cooked from scratch, they require soaking and longer cooking but are more economical, offer superior fluffy and creamy flavour texture.

Directions for use.

Allow about 55g/2oz dried weight per person. Once soaked and cooked they’ll at least double in weight.

Dried beans need soaking for several hours before cooking, preferably overnight. Add a teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda to speed things up. An even quicker method is to bring them to the boil in a pan then turn the heat off and soak them for about an hour covered. Always discard the soaking water, rinse and cook in fresh water without any salt (which toughens the skins).

When cooked, the cannellini bean is fluffy and creamy.

They are typically known for their smooth texture and nutty flavor.

A versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of recipes.

As an appetizer: Served with crusty bread or crostini.

As a side dish: an accompaniment with chicken, grilled fish, seafood, or meats.

Simmer them in soups and stews like pasta fagioli or minestrone for a thick, comforting broth that warms you from the inside out. Toss them cooked into salads for a protein boost and a delightful textural contrast.

Perfect pairing for all your favourite dressings and ingredients.
