It is an ancient variety of legumes, very similar to chickpea with the highest protein content. In the decorticated chickling version, the skin is removed by a mechanical process, so as to allow its quick use in the kitchen. It does not, therefore, need to be soaked and can be cooked in soups or puree. Perfect with the addition of cooked or raw vegetable ratatouille.
This ancient variety of Tuscan chickpea is suitable for being cooked as a side dish, seasoned with olive oil, salt, pepper, and can also be used in soups for its thin and very digestible skin.
Preparation:
The chickpeas must be soaked for at least 12 hours. Rinse and then boil in cold water. Bring to the boil and cook for about two hours (40 minutes with a pressure cooker). The dose is 80 grams per person.
Cooking time: 5-6 minutes

This breed with a dark coat is distinguished from other pigs by a characteristic white band that fastens, "surrounds" the withers, thorax, shoulders, and forelegs and hence the name.
