Zuppa di Farro e Colatura di Alici

La zuppa di Farro e Colatura di Alici ( farro soup with anchovy extract) is a delicious antipasto we tasted on a recent trip to Cetara, on the Amalfi Coast. In this picturesque village, Ristorante San Pietro is the simple yet elegant restaurant where chef Franco prepares the soup using only the best Colatura produced by IASA (Ittica Alimentare Salerno).

Method

  1. Soak the Farro for 25 minutes. Drain and place in a pot, covering with 2 quarts of water.
