In breve

The dish in short

  • Lagane: broad strips of hand-made pasta, cut a finger wide from a dough of durum wheat and soft wheat flour, eggs and lukewarm water.
  • Chickpeas, boiled until soft, then sautéed in olive oil with garlic and salt until they take the flavour.
  • Finished with peperoni cruschi: dried Peperoni di Senise, a PGI since 1996, fried for a few seconds until crisp.
  • The dough rests 10 minutes, is rolled thin and dried 15 minutes; the lagane are boiled apart, then tossed with the chickpeas.
