Ennese Chickling "Agrirape"

28/12/2015 - The chickling is an ancient legume bean which was very spread all over Sicily until the last years but nowadays it is difficult to find.
It contains extraordinary properties and it is very appreciated for its irresistible consistency and its taste.
Moreover it has great nourishing characteristics, particularly rich in calcium, phosphorus and oligoelements.
It contains the taste of the Sicilian tradition, it should be tried with soups.
It is small size, and it has the typical irregular shape and it is straw yellow coloured, the chuckling is a legume which has ancient origins, but with the passing of time it has been less and less considered, due to its low productivity and the need that all the working phases have to be hand made, 5 years ago we started again this cultivation and we are doing our best to spread again a legume bean which is full of history and it's strictly bound to our Land.
