Notes

  • The pasta e fagioli will continue to thicken as it sits. Add more water or stock to thin it out as desired. Enjoy it however thick or soupy you prefer.
  • For a soupier, less thick soup, cook the pasta separately and add it to each individual bowl when serving. This way it wont absorb all of the liquid in the soup.
  • If omitting the pancetta, try replacing with a few anchovies fillets or extra parmesan cheese rinds to give it depth of flavor.
