Description

This rustic soup is born in the hills of Tuscany — white beans simmered with garlic, rosemary, and vegetables until tender and creamy. Drizzled with olive oil and served with crusty bread, it’s Italian comfort in its purest form.

Ingredients

  • 🫘 300 g dried cannellini beans, soaked overnight (1 ½ cups)
  • 🧅 1 onion, chopped
  • 🥕 1 carrot, diced
  • 🌿 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 🧄 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 🫒 30 ml olive oil (2 tbsp)
  • 🌿 1 tsp dried rosemary or a fresh sprig
  • 🍅 15 g tomato paste (1 tbsp)
  • 💧 1.5 L water or vegetable broth (6 cups)
  • 🧂 Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 🍞 Optional: crusty bread for serving

Preparation

  • 1️⃣ Soften base: Heat olive oil in a pot. Add onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Cook for 5–6 min.
  • 2️⃣ Add beans: Drain soaked beans and add to pot. Stir in tomato paste and rosemary.
  • 3️⃣ Simmer: Pour in water or broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1.5–2 hours, until beans are tender.
  • 4️⃣ Blend (optional): For creamier texture, blend 1–2 ladles of soup and return to the pot.
  • 5️⃣ Season & serve: Season with salt and pepper. Serve with olive oil and bread.

Advice

For extra depth, rub the bread with garlic and toast it — then let it soak under the soup like they do in Tuscany.
