Spelt and Vegetable Soup
Spelt and vegetable soup is a healthy and nutritious dish that combines the rustic taste of spelt with the freshness of vegetables. Typical of Italian cuisine, this soup is perfect for colder days. Spelt, an ancient grain rich in fiber, gives the soup a pleasantly thick texture and a slightly nutty flavor. Fresh vegetables, such as carrots, onions, celery, and leeks, add color and flavor to the soup. Seasoned with parsley and bay leaf, this soup is a delicious and healthy vegetarian option.

Washing the spelt thoroughly is important to remove all the powder on the grains; otherwise, when brought to a boil, it creates a film on the water's surface, causing an effect similar to milk boiling over
- STEP 2 OF 6
Soak the spelt for at least 6 hours and cook for half an hour

The cooking time depends on the freshness of the spelt: for the one I had, 20 minutes of cooking were sufficient
