Classic Italian Pasta e Fagioli. A blending of white wine with beef and chicken stock forms the base for this hearty bean and pasta soup. Simmer with garlic, tomato paste and parsley along with the beans and farfalle, then top with a drizzle of olive oil and a dusting of Parmesan cheese.
In 14th-century Italy, long pasta shapes had varying local names. Barnabas de Reatinis of Reggio notes in his Compendium de naturis et proprietatibus alimentorum (1338) that the Tuscan vermicelli are called orati in Bologna, minutelli in Venice, fermentini in Reggio, and pancardelle in Mantua.
