Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 medium yellow onion (diced (about 1 cup))
3 medium cloves garlic (minced)
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
3 15-ounce cans cannellini beans
6 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
2 cups uncooked small or medium pasta shells
1 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
More olive oil for drizzling
Grated parmesan (for non-vegans or vegan parmesan)
Crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Set a large soup pot over medium-low heat. Add olive oil. When hot, add the onion. Saute until soft, about 8 minutes. Add garlic, rosemary, and smoked paprika. Saute, stirring constantly, for one more minute.
  • Add TWO cans of beans to the pot, liquid included.
  • Using an immersion blender, puree the mixture right in the pot (you can also puree in a blender and return the mixture to the pot).
  • Drain the remaining can of beans and add to the pot, along with the broth, tomatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a gentle boil.
  • Once boiling, add the pasta. Cook until al dente (the exact time depends on package directions - usually about 8 minutes).
  • Taste, adding more salt and pepper if necessary.
  • Ladle into bowls and top with a drizzle of olive oil, parmesan (for the non-vegans) or vegan parmesan if using, and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes if desired. Don't forget the crusty bread served alongside!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans. This will give your pasta e fagioli a more complex flavor and texture. Great options include kidney beans, cannellini beans, and chickpeas.
  • Don't skimp on the vegetables. Vegetables add flavor, nutrition, and color to your pasta e fagioli. Use a variety of vegetables, such as carrots, celery, onions, and garlic.
  • Use a good quality pasta. The pasta is the star of the show in pasta e fagioli, so it's important to use a good quality pasta. Look for a pasta that is made with durum wheat and that has a nice al dente texture.
  • Season the soup well. Pasta e fagioli should be flavorful, so don't be afraid to season it well. Use a variety of spices, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Let the soup simmer. Simmering allows the flavors to meld together and develop. Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time.

Conclusion:

Pasta e fagioli is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a great way to use up leftover beans and vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying pasta e fagioli that the whole family will enjoy.
