Celery flakes

The Aleppo pepper has a moderate heat level of about 10,000 on the Scoville scale, with some fruitiness and mild, cumin-like undertones. The most common use is in the form of crushed flakes, which are typically slightly milder and oilier than conventional crushed red pepper, with a hint of saltiness and a slightly raisin-like flavor. Unlike crushed red pepper, celery flakes flakes contain no inner flesh or seeds, contributing to the mildness. The spice is a common ingredient in some of the dishes that comprise a meze.

Enjoy a delicious plant-based dinner with this vegan rice and bean one-pot. Heat the oil in a large pan set over a high heat and fry the onion, celery and pepper, stirring occasionally, for 5 mins until starting to soften and colour. Stir in the spices and rice, then tip in the tomatoes and a can of water. Stir in the garlic, beans and bouillon. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 25 mins until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid. Stir in the parsley and serve hot.

Alastair Little, of a dish that is traditionally made from leftover minestrone and stale bread. I also like the silkiness of Caldesi’s leek, and have added some seasonal diced squash, too, though play around with whatever needs a home. Baked, not grilled: Lori De Mori’s ribollita. Cannellini beans are common in ribollita, but any beans will do. If you cook them from dry, add a strip of kombu to make them more digestible.

De Mori and Maccioni puree some of the beans and stir them into the broth along with the mandatory bread, to thicken it. Caldesi and De Mori both bake their ribollitas, but I’m going to stick mine under the grill to crisp the top, so I don’t have to turn on the oven for too long. If you’re using dried beans, put them in a large pan, cover generously with cold water and add the garlic, bay and kombu. Bring to a boil, then simmer for an hour to an hour and a half, until soft. Scoop out half the beans and set aside, and discard the bay and kombu.

Puree the remaining beans and enough of their cooking liquid to make a thin, loose puree, adding more liquid, or fresh water, if necessary. If using tinned beans, scoop out half, then puree the rest with the liquid from the can. Put the oil in a large pan on a medium heat, then saute the onions, stirring, for six or seven minutes, until they soften. Add the carrot, celery and a pinch of salt, and cook for five or so minutes more, until soft. If you’re using tinned beans, finely chop the garlic and stir it into the pan. Stir in the fennel seeds and chilli flakes, if using, cook for a minute, then add the leek, squash and cavolo nero, stir well, then cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until limp.

Cover again and leave to bubble for about 40 minutes, or until the vegetables are cooked to your taste. Stir in the remaining cooked beans and the bread, cook until the latter is soft, then season the soup to taste. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and pop under a hot grill until crisp on top, or serve just as it is. Top with grated cheese and spring onion, if using.

Is ribollita the ultimate zero-waste soup, or do you have an even better idea up your sleeve? Media Limited or its affiliated companies. It’s flavorful, incredibly healthy, and comes together in no time. Leftover pulled pork, shredded chicken, or braised beef would be delicious. Just add it in during the last few minutes of cooking, just to warm it up. ANY kind of cabbage variety works here, including green, red, savoy, napa, and bok choy. Go for any of these, or even mix them up.

We know how healthy beans are for us. But cabbage is also a powerhouse. To store the soup, let the soup cool entirely before storing it in an airtight container for 3 to 5 days in the fridger. Alternatively you can freeze it for up to 2 months. Let us know how it went in the comments below!
