Cece Biologico Viola are organic Italian chickpeas (Cicer Arietinum), historically originating from Turkey and cultivated in Italy. Sown in March and harvested from late July through August, these chickpeas are prized for their natural sweetness and pleasant texture.
In the kitchen, they shine in vegetable soups and hearty legume stews. When puréed, they become an exquisite side dish complementing white meats and shellfish. Their sweetness and consistency particularly enhance cold salads featuring vegetables and legumes.
