Which pulse for what

Dwarf peas and lentils cook quickly and need no long soaking: the evening pulses. Black chickpeas and grass peas want a night in water and slow cooking, and make the tastiest winter soups. The Zollino bean has a thin skin, black-eyed beans cook fast and are good in salads. Split fava beans are the ones for fava purée with chicory. The mixed soup puts several pulses in one pack.

How to cook them

Soak in cold water, cook slowly in unsalted water, salt only at the end. The terracotta pot — the pignata — is the traditional one, because it keeps a low, steady heat for hours. Do not throw away the cooking water of chickpeas and grass peas: it is the base of the soup.
