Pasta e Fagioli, a staple of Italian cuisine, particularly the Cucina Povera (literally poor cuisine) tradition, embodies simplicity and flavor in every spoonful. This humble yet hearty dish exemplifies the ingenious use of basic ingredients to create a nourishing meal that warms both body and soul.
