Freguula Sarda: Perfect ingredient for cold summer salads

The fregula gives a particular touch to this salad, but I'm biased because I love it. In my opinion it lends itself perfectly to summer salad recipes because it remains al dente and well shelled. Like l’saffron fregula salad, tomatoes and almonds, which is also vegan. If you can't find the fregula, you can replace it with rice (both basmati is integral), farro, orzo or even pasta if you prefer. If you don't know what’ it's the Sardinian fregula, you can take a look at Video preparation of Sardinian fregula on my YouTube channel. And maybe even learn how to prepare it at home.
