Hi, Many years ago, on a trip to Italy ,I ordered Pasta Fagiole in a cafe in Venice. What I got surprised me...it was white...not what I had grown up with in our Italian family. I tasted it and was thrilled. I told the waiter I'd like another bowl..and soon the chef himself came to the table. I told him how much I loved his creationj...he sat and gave me the recipe. I wrote it down word for word and make it for my family and friends....white beans ,chicken broth, a few carrots..and the secret ingredient...lots of dried mint!!!!! Superb. Pasta Fagiole alla El Teatro. It's heaven and great any time..but especially on a winter's day with lots of crusty Italian bread leethebard
