Carla's *New and Improved* Pasta e Fagiole

  • Here is the recipe I have made every SINGLE week for the past 3 years: Pasta e Fagiole. It all started with my mom, Carole's, version, which she explained on a phone call when I was a junior in college, living off campus and cooking for myself for the first time. That version, while perfect in its own right, has been tweaked and adjusted and experimented with and personalized and it is now *this* recipe. Subtle upgrades throughout the process have gotten this fazool into beast mode, and I look forward to dictating it over the phone to my child at college, though he could just watch the video I guess and frankly would prefer a text. Anyway! If you've been making the original, try this out. It will give you the feeling of being in a warm and cozy house that you know like the back of your hand, but the furniture has been rearranged since the last time you were there and-yeah how come we didn't put the couch over by the window sooner??? It changes the whole room!

      Beans 100%, noting more comforting to me than a bowl of beans. Maybe you could also get sneaky and make pasta out of beans 😊

    I freeze those tough fennel stalks, celery ends, carrot tops and peels, onion skins, root ends, tops, etc. When I get a big bagful, I put them in the crockpot with a bay leaf, peppercorns, maybe one carrot or a celery stalk(I tend to have mostly onion), chicken pieces or bones, fill with water, then cook for hours. Strain and you have homemade stock! Parsley stems, cilantro stems, bell pepper tips are all stock makings. You can do this for veggie stock or whatever bones you have. I always have stock in the refrigerator! And I don't waste all that flavor!

      You must come from a cold poor country where veggies are truly scarce. The scrap compost goes into the soil to enrich the soil for us. 😅

      I do the same! It's free veggie stock!

    • @jpgr69
      @jpgr69 7 месяцев назад +1

      I do exactly the same! I freeze some of the stock in ice cube trays and keep them in freezer bags for when I just need a few.

      @jon368100 6 месяцев назад +3

      I love this…im going to start doing this. We go through quite a bit of stock in my house, and it gets expensive if you buy it every time! Thank you for the tip

  • @GregCurtin45
    @GregCurtin45 Год назад +90

    Carla is spot on correct about soaking beans for a soup in salted water. Note that adding salt to bean-water will make them firmer, which is what you want in a soup. Conversely, if you are hydrating beans for a salad don't add salt to the water. Thanks for the soffritto education.

  • @cjcampos79

    This recipe is a GIFT. I can not overstate this is truly one of the best things I've ever made.. and that's really saying something. My cooking has gotten better since I have started picking up Carla's techniques and this is such a quintessential Carla recipe! The flavor pay off is INSANE. This will be in my forever rotation!!

    FAZOOOOL! After a 6 hour journey, my partner and I sat down to the most outrageously, earth-shatteringly, delicious meal we've made since going vegetarian. Used 1t seaweed flake as an anchovy sub. Incredible recipe! Love in a bowl

  • @welfareprincess
    @welfareprincess Год назад +37

    To all my fellow plant based homies: You can substitute the anchovies for Yondu if you can find it at your local Korean market! Adds a really nice depth of umami the same way anchovies do and it's made from veggies!

    Unless the soup is getting eaten at once, I keep the pasta out and then just add a handful to the bowl. The small pastas heat just fine when the hot soup hits the bowl. Otherwise leftover soup with pasta gets mushier with every reheat.

    If you pound the onions into a paste in a mortar and pasta, it actually tastes better. I'm not being weird or channelling Andy...I swear it is worth the effort. The rest you can use a mortar and pestle, but the onions...the onions...

    This is literally my favorite dish to make. Your original fagioli recipe changed the way I cook soups and pastas and I am eternally grateful 🥲 can't wait to try this improved version! Question - how long would you say this recipe took, from start to finish? (Not including soaking the beans)
    Thank you Carla!! pasta queen of my heart!

    • @CarlaLalliMusic123
      @CarlaLalliMusic123  Год назад +8

      Thank you! I would say 15 mins to prep the veg, 40 mins to make the soffritto, and 90 mins to cook the soup all the way through. Allow 2 hours?

    @robertsterner2145 Год назад +1

    I learned to soak beans in salted water from Kenji Lopez-Alt maybe a decade ago and it totally changed my bean game. Also if you want to eventually puree the beans (like with hummus or black bean soup), baking soda alters the structure and makes it much easier to end up with a smoother result.

  • @gwenclark9016
    @gwenclark9016 4 месяца назад

    Like Rebecca, I freeze and make a stock when I get enough. No bones to keep it vegetarian.. If I have enough mushroom stems/scraps I include those. It makes a wonderful mushroom broth for soups or sauces.

    Made this soup last night. The best thing about it was learning a technique for preparing sofrito. Was not keen on the cumin seed, fennel seed turmeric, the flavors didn't blend well,, niether middle eastern or Mediterranean. Also I would stick to her mom's version with whole tomatoes. Lastly, Pasta fagiole is most like a stew not a soup
