Pasta and Beans.
Pasta and beans it is a first dish of the tradition of many countries but here in campania some more. Complete, energetic and savory.
To eat a beautiful dish of pasta and beans is as to make a complete meal:
we have the vegetable proteins of the vegetables and the carbohydrates of the pasta and we have the fats given by a good turn of oil extravergine of olive or of a beaten.
Those that once were considered foods of the poor people, that could not afford the opulences of the tables prepared by game and meats of every kind, were in short, in reality excellent substitutes than miss-and savory as much as.
The recipe of the pasta and beans it is one of the most traditional of our peninsula and, being diffused and appreciated in a lot of zones, variations exist different of it.
Because of this popularity we cannot say with certainty which is the country "original" of the pasta and beans since different regions affirm to possess the original recipe: Veneto and Tuscany are the two regions that more than the other ones they have made some pasta and beans a typical dish.
To every way, the recipe of the pasta and beans it is born in the inns in the ancient Rome as economic, but savory and nourishing dish, proper for sfamare the numerous and various clients of the inns, even if in reality the variety used to that time was different today from that more diffused, that centuries she was imported later by the New World.
This recipe transforms the schemes of a classical soup, that it becomes wealthy some tastes of the sea and the earth, poor him, but from the extraordinary tastes absolutely.
Flat traditionally Neapolitan it is typical in the whole coastal band, to do when it is the period of the mussels in the months that have gone since May to August.
A variation very appreciated by my parts it is surely that with the mussels.
On the preparation of this dish there are discordant opinions on two tied up moments to the preparation.
The first one concerns the mass to bath of the beans of the evening before, that would be deleterious however for the following cooking of the bean for many.
The other instead on pasta's type to be used, the diatribe rises in fact between the tubes and the mixed pasta; preferred however this last really because being this one poor dish of the country tradition postpones to the use of the demand.
The only thing some is that the pasta and beans it stays a complete dish and buonissimo, at all it is not my preferred dish.
Buon Appetito.
