Hi TJ, I’m thrilled you found this Pasta e Fagioli recipe from my friend Lola. Can’t get any more authentic. I may go make some right now for the World Series.

Recently we made a trip to Rome for a vacation along with other stops. We fell in love with the fagioli soup and have been trying to find a recipe like it. searching I have found so many that added all kinds of things that were not in it and finally I found yours and it is GREAT. I am from New York where the real Italian food is and now live in the South where my husband is from. He never knew what the Real Italian Food taste like until we went to Italy. He enjoys it so much more now.

Hi Rosemary, thanks for sharing your thoughts about this dish. Barlotti beans may be tough to find so you may want to substitute cannelloni beans.

All I can say is “Yummm!” I will have to try this although I am not sure I can find Barlotti beans! This was a dish my mother enjoyed - although picky kids that we were, we didn’t know how good it was! Now my mouth is watering! Thanks for sharing.

baci, baci,

This is one of my favorite dishes and growing up in Rome was truly a gift. We used to go to a place we called the Nunery, not sure if it’s there anymore. It’s out towards Lago Bracciano. They made my favorite pasta e fagioli.

Thanks for sharing this. Un abbraccio forte!
