Legume recipes

Legumes have always been a staple in home cooking, and I'm a huge fan. Here are some of my favorites: a mouth-watering lentil and chorizo ​​stew, a spinach and chickpea soup (a Lenten stew) perfect for cold weather, and perfectly cooked red beans that taste like they came from a restaurant. I also make them cold, like a refreshing chickpea salad or a creamy chickpea hummus. And lentils on their own, with vegetables and potatoes, are always a winner.

Don't know how to cook legumes without them falling apart? Well, I'll show you grandpa's tricks: soaking, cooking time, and that sofrito that makes all the difference. So get out the pot, the spices, and lots of love, because legumes are economical, healthy, and delicious. Let's get cooking!
