Panissa Vercellese (rice of Vercelli with beans and salami)

In Vercelli their paniscia is called panissa. If differs from its Novarese cousin with the absence of the pork rind, the vegetables and the wine. Generally it is the amount of beans and rice that distinguish the Vercellese version, but we have noticed that some trattoria use a 3-2 ratio of rice to beans, so we have done the same, and reduced the amount to modest portions. The amount of salami can be increased.
