In breve
The dish in short
- Sagne: a firm dough of semolina, water and salt, rolled about 2 mm thick and cut into strips 6 mm wide and about 4 cm long.
- Small round white beans, soaked overnight, boiled hard for half an hour with an onion and a stick of celery, then simmered, salted and roughly crushed.
- The dressing: olive oil heated with quartered garlic and chilli, poured over the moment the garlic starts to colour.
- Sagne, a little of their water and the beans are mixed in the tureen with chopped parsley: creamy, never liquid.
