PASTA FAZOOL (PASTA E FAGIOLI)



Pasta Fazool (Pasta e Fagioli) image

This classic Italian-American comfort food works with any kind of sausage, but I like the fennel and anise flavors of sweet Italian sausage with the beans--it's a hearty soup that's fast and easy to put together.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Noodle Soup Recipes

Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil
12 ounces sweet bulk Italian sausage
1 stalk celery, diced
½ yellow onion, chopped
¾ cup dry elbow macaroni
¼ cup tomato paste
3 cups chicken broth, or more as needed, divided
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
3 cups chopped Swiss chard
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini (white kidney) beans, drained
¼ cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus additional for serving, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown sausage while breaking it into small pieces, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add diced celery and chopped onion. Cook until onions are translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add dry pasta. Cook and stir 2 minutes.
  • Stir in tomato paste until evenly distributed, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 3 cups broth. Raise heat to high and bring to a simmer. Add salt, black pepper, pepper flakes, and oregano. When soup comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium and let it simmer about 5 minutes, stirring often. Check soup consistency and add more broth, if needed.
  • Place chopped chard in a bowl. Cover with cold water and rinse the leaves; any grit will fall to the bottom of the bowl. Transfer chard to colander to drain briefly; add to soup. Cook and stir until leaves wilt, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir in white beans; continue cooking and stirring until pasta is perfectly cooked, another 4 or 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in grated cheese. Serve topped with grated cheese, if desired.

PASTA E FAGIOLI

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 1h50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 recipe Simmered Pintos using only 1/2 pound (about 1 1/8 cups) beans
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium or large onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 28-ounce can chopped tomatoes with juice
Pinch of sugar
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 small dried red pepper, or 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
A bouquet garni made with a bay leaf, 1 or 2 Parmesan rinds, and a few sprigs of thyme and parsley
6 ounces elbow macaroni or small shells (1 cup)
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated (1/2 cup), optional

Steps:

  • Make the simmered beans as directed, changing only the amount of beans (use 2 quarts water). Remove onion and bay leaf, using tongs or a slotted spoon, as directed. Place a strainer over a bowl and drain beans. Measure broth and top up with enough water to make 6 cups.
  • Heat oil over medium heat in a large, heavy casserole or Dutch oven and add chopped onion. Cook, stirring, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add rosemary and garlic and stir together for another minute, until garlic is fragrant. Stir in tomatoes, add sugar, salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until tomatoes have cooked down and the mixture is very fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add broth from the beans, tomato paste, hot pepper, bouquet garni, and salt to taste and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Stir in beans and heat through. Taste and adjust salt.
  • 10 to 15 minutes before serving, stir in pasta. When it is cooked al dente, taste and adjust seasonings, stir in parsley, and serve, passing Parmesan in a bowl.
