Below I will explain how we can produce it and store it. Its use is great for preparing panettone vegans as we shall see in future articles.

Water preparation faba (AF):

• g.300 dried chickpeas (but if you want even blackberries, it’s up to you to decide)
• water
• Bicarbonate.

We put the chickpeas to soak with water (plenty of water, Exceed the level of chickpeas) and quite a tablespoon of baking soda overnight. On the morning scoliamo chickpeas, we wash them and cook them in the water, always abundant, and cook for a couple of hours. After we recover cooking the cooking water, we scoliamo the chickpeas with the colander leaning against a pot where the fall faba water. Chickpeas can use them to make vegan meatballs or to make “pasta and chickpeas.” Let us, then, to cool water and rest in the fridge a few hours before use.
