Chickling Peas “all’Antica”

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Among the oldest legumes in human history, chickling peas has for centuries been the salvation of farmers, who in times of famine used to feed themselves almost solely on it.
Until a few decades ago, chickling peas had fallen into disuse and was often used as gravel for the crib, precisely because of its pebble-like appearance. Today, however, this legume is experiencing a real renaissance, thanks in part to several starred chefs in central and southern Italy who have decided to include it on their menus.

Chickling peas “all’Antica” are prepared according to a historic peasant recipe combined with the innovation of vasocottura, a technique that allows all the flavors to remain inside the jar, ready to be released when it is opened.
Open, heat and add a drizzle of excellent Italian EVO oil raw: a quick, tasty lunch in full Italian style!

SHIPPING

We receive your order, prepare it and ship it in 24/36 hours.

We are aware that excellent products need excellent packaging and at the same time we cannot risk damaging in any way the precious Italian culinary jewels: for this reason our warehouse is equipped with temperature and lighting ideal for food preservation and the most delicate ones (cheeses, cold cuts and craft beers) are stored inside cold rooms. During shipping, on the other hand, each product is protected with the packaging most appropriate to its characteristics.

Cheeses and cured meats, which despite being aged require special care, travel accompanied by a special slow-release gel ice inside isothermal bags: in this way freshness is preserved until the goods arrive at your home.

For our craft beers, which are unpasteurized and therefore more sensitive to high temperatures than normal, we use a special isothermal bubble wrap, which can ensure that the accumulated cold is maintained for the shipping time while protecting the bottles from shocks.

To secure the precious bottles of Italian wine, we have equipped ourselves with special inflatable bags, designed solely for the purpose of immobilizing and protecting this product inside the box.

For jars containing a thousand Italian goodnesses, we use special protective bubble wrap liners.
