The Fagioli al Fiasco Cream by Gastronomia Glicine brings the authentic flavours of Tuscan tradition to the table through a simple yet characterful recipe. The name Fagioli al Fiasco recalls a traditional Tuscan method of preparing beans, traditionally slow-cooked in a glass flask, an old-fashioned technique closely associated with the region’s rural cuisine.

At the heart of this cream are Zolfini beans, prized for their delicate flavour and naturally creamy texture, complemented by dried rosemary, extra virgin olive oil and a touch of salt. The result is a smooth and flavourful cream that celebrates the simplicity of traditional Tuscan cooking.

Its smooth, creamy texture and full-bodied bean flavour, enhanced by the aromatic notes of rosemary, make it remarkably versatile. It is ideal served as a warm appetiser, simply accompanied by crostini or bruschetta, or as part of a rustic and authentic aperitivo.

In the kitchen, it can also be served alongside vegetables and side dishes, or used as a base for soups and vegetarian preparations, adding body and depth of flavour. It is equally well suited to creating simple yet distinctive dishes that bring the character of traditional Tuscan country cooking to the table.

A gentle processing method helps preserve the character of the ingredients. The cream is lightly acidified to allow pasteurisation at lower temperatures, helping to retain the flavour, aromas and texture of the preparation.

For a softer and less acidic taste, the chef recommends adding a small pinch of baking soda, then gently heating and stirring the cream before use. This simple step helps soften the acidity and allows the full flavour of the cream to be appreciated.

A vegan cream with an authentic character, celebrating the simplicity of Zolfini beans and the fragrant notes of rosemary in a recipe inspired by Tuscan culinary tradition, ready to be enjoyed as it is or interpreted creatively in the kitchen.
