The rich and slightly bitter taste of escarole combines with kidney beans to create a balanced union of flavours. The result is a healthy and authentic dish to be served with crostoni (pieces of bread) toasted in the oven with a drizzle of olive oil and rosemary, all accompanied by the creamy taste of lard.
