Steps:
- Bring beans, Parmesan rind, carrots, celery, head of garlic, parsley, rosemary, bay leaves, chiles, and 2 quarts water to a boil in a medium pot. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer, adding more water as needed, until beans are tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Season with salt and pepper, remove from heat, and let sit 30 minutes. Discard vegetables, rind, and herbs.
- Meanwhile, heat 3 Tbsp. oil in a large pot over medium. Cook onion and chopped garlic, stirring occasionally, until softened, 8-10 minutes. Add tomatoes, crushing with your hands, and cook, stirring often, until liquid is almost completely reduced, 12-15 minutes. Add wine, bring to a boil, and cook until almost completely evaporated, about 5 minutes.
- Add beans and their liquid; cook until flavors meld, 12-15 minutes. Add pasta; cook, stirring and adding more water as needed, until al dente, 15-20 minutes. Add escarole and cook until wilted, about 1 minute; season with salt and pepper. Serve soup drizzled with oil and topped with Parmesan and more chile.

[email protected]This pasta e fagioli with escarole soup is fantastic! The escarole adds a slightly bitter flavor that balances out the richness of the beans and pasta. I also love the addition of the pancetta, which gives the soup a smoky flavor.
