About Round Beans

When cooking, wash the round beans and place them in a pot covered with salted cold water and cook them for the necessary time, at least 50 minutes. If during cooking you need to add water, remember to heat it up; a drop in temperature would harden the bean skins. Obviously, this is true for all beans, not just round ones.

in cucina con pina

My name is Pina, and my passion is food and cooking in general. On the blog, I focus on regional dishes like those from my birthplace, Sicily. I also feature dishes from Lazio, the region that has hosted me for over 40 years, but in general, I cover all Italian regions. Traveling and exploring is my second passion, so I couldn't leave out dishes from around the "World" on my blog. My blog is divided into simple and essential sections like appetizers, first courses, main courses, side dishes, bread and leavened products, jams and preserves, wines and wineries, and of course, travels. Desserts are included, and finally, there is a dedicated corner for gluten-free options. Easy recipes, explained step by step and always updated.
