Bioalberti is a family-run farm, active for four generations among the hills of Umbria, in Poggio Aquilone, a medieval village dating back to the 1200s where we grow exclusively using organic methods – this is where the Split Chickpea comes from
Split Chickpea
Since 1998 we have grown exclusively using organic methods, driven by the belief that healthy eating starts from respected, fertile soil. We grow legumes, grains and olives, following sustainable farming practices such as crop rotation and organic fertilisation. We are a young and dynamic company that combines tradition and innovation, thanks also to our collaboration with the University of Agriculture of Perugia. We have an ambitious project: the recovery of ancient and forgotten varieties such as Verna and Gentilrosso wheat, Senatore Cappelli wheat, einkorn spelt, grass pea, black chickpea and hulled barley. Our desire.
What Split Chickpeas are and how to cook them.
We produce with respect for nature, offering authentic products. Our Split Chickpea from Poggio Aquilone, a traditional variety grown in Umbria, is a local legume variety cultivated on the Umbrian hills. Derived from careful processing of the traditional chickpea, it is stripped of its outer skin, making it more digestible, quick to cook and particularly suited to modern, healthy cooking. Splitting – that is, removing the outer skin – makes it easy to digest: it doesn't need soaking. It cooks quickly, in just a few minutes (about 15–20 minutes). Perfect for preparing veloutés, soups, purees or vegetable creams
Split Chickpea in the kitchen: Ideal for preparing gnocchi and croquettes. An excellent base for ethnic dishes or Mediterranean dishes
