So I'm watching the 'Bama-Florida and Kentucky-Mississippi State games, and I decided to go ahead and make a crockpot full of pasta fagioli. Or for those of you who don't speak "Eye-talian", that is Italian bean soup. My grandmother's recipe that she taught me how to make. And it's a Tuscan recipe, not Sicilian. No tomatoes in it at all. Just put it all together and turned the crockpot on, and I'll probably let it simmer until about 10 pm or so. Probably around 9 pm or so I'll open it up and add a couple spoonfuls of Pecorino-Romano cheese, recover and simmer another hour. Then it gets turned off, so it can cool enough to put in the refrigerator overnight.
Tomorrow we eat good! Momma Mia! That'sa some good zuppa!
