Summer on the Table with Biolanga: Organic Cereals, Legumes, and Hazelnuts

🌿 Summer calls for lightness, nature answers

With the arrival of warm weather, the way we cook changes: we look for fresh, quick-to-prepare dishes that nourish without weighing us down. The good news is that Italian tradition already has all the answers: cereal salads, legumes dressed with a drizzle of oil, simple and genuine snacks. Biolanga, an organic company from the Piedmont Langhe, brings exactly this to the table: cereals, legumes, and hazelnuts grown in Italy according to organic farming principles, perfect for summer.

🌾 Cereal salads: the queens of the summer table

A barley or spelt salad prepared the night before is the perfect summer lunch: fresh, complete, and delicious even at the beach or office. Just cook the grains, let them cool, and dress with seasonal vegetables, olives, and good extra virgin olive oil.

  • Organic Pearl Barley – quick cooking and soft texture: the ideal base for cold salads and summer one-dish meals.
  • Organic Semi-Pearled Spelt – the quintessential ancient grain, with a rustic taste and rich in fiber, perfect with cherry tomatoes and basil.

🥦 Legumes: plant proteins that don’t heat up the kitchen

In summer, legumes shine best in cold preparations: chickpeas in salad with tuna and red onion, lentils with grilled vegetables, borlotti beans dressed with oil. A night of cooking, and the next day’s lunch is ready.

  • Organic Dry Chickpeas – versatile and nutritious, also great blended into a fresh hummus for aperitivo.
  • Organic Lentils – rich in iron and protein, delicious warm or cold with crunchy vegetables.
  • Organic Dry Borlotti Beans – a classic of traditional summer salads from the countryside.

🌰 Smart snacks: rice cakes and hazelnuts for every moment

Between a swim and a walk, the right snack makes all the difference. Biolanga rice cakes are light, crunchy, and made with Italian cereals including ancient varieties, while the Tonda Gentile Trilobata hazelnuts from Piedmont are a treasure chest of good energy and noble fats.

  • Organic Spelt, Brown Rice, Buckwheat, and Corn Rice Cakes – perfect with vegetable creams, hummus, or simply plain.
  • Organic Shelled Hazelnuts – the famous Tonda Gentile from the Langhe, ready to enjoy or add to yogurt and salads.
  • Organic Roasted Hazelnut Paste – 100% Piedmont hazelnuts: try it in homemade ice cream or cold yogurt.
