For the International Legumes Day we think of Chickpeas and Savoy Cabbage Traditional Italian Soup
Serving 6 persons
200 gr.=1 cup dry chickpeas
2 lt = 8 cups Vegetable broth
Half green savoy cabbage
2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
fine Salt
-Soak the chickpeas in water for 6 hours with a teaspoon of salt
-Drain the chickpeas
-Pour two tbsps of oil in a pot and add a quarter of onion. On the stove, medium temperature
-Add them to the pot and after two minutes add the broth. Add a pinch of salt
-Boil the chickpeas in broth for an hour.
-Cut the cabbage into thin slices
-Add it to the chickpeas.

So simple and so tasty. It’s possible:
