Method

1

Affettare finemente la cipolla e metterla in una pentola a fondo spesso con 10 ml di olio extravergine di oliva. Cuocere a fuoco moderato per 3-4 minuti fino a che non risulti trasparente e fragrante, mescolando di frequente.

2

Aggiungere i ceci e i fagioli cannellini già ammollati la sera precedente (oppure precotti se secchi freschi). Versare 800 ml di acqua fredda, unire il sale e il peperoncino se gradito.

3

Portare a ebollizione a fuoco vivo, poi ridurre il calore e mantenere un sobbollire gentile per circa 25 minuti, coperto con un coperchio.

4

Aggiungere il farro integrale e proseguire la cottura per altri 25-30 minuti, fino a che tutti i legumi e il cereale risultino teneri e l'acqua sia stata quasi completamente assorbita.

5

Assaggiare e correggere di sale. Versare la zuppa in ciotole singole, aggiungere il timo fresco e irrorare con 1 ml di olio extravergine di oliva per porzione. Completare con una generosa macinata di pepe nero.
