Pasta e Fagioli
Today we have a new recipe from @tinastausendschoen for you: Pasta e Fagioli from the Vitavit® Premium Pressure Cooker.
Cooking with the Vitavit® Premium Pressure Cooker from Fissler gives you valuable time for what you love. Because pressure cooking cuts the cooking time by up to 70% - valuable time you can use for things that are even more important to you than cooking. In Fissler Pressure Cookers, your ingredients and their aromas are sealed airtight. After the lid safely locks and pressure builds up, the cooking time begins. Inside the pot, excess pressure is created, raising the boiling point of liquids from 110°C to up to 116 °C. This increase in temperature ensures that the cooking time is more than halved compared with a conventional Cooking Pot. For Pasta e Fagioli, this means that instead of 1 – 1,5 hours, you only need 25 minutes to prepare the complete dish.
Have fun trying it out!

Ingredients
| 200 g | Borlotti or Pinto beans, dried |
| 1 bunch | soup vegetables, chopped |
| 3 | cloves of garlic |
| 2 tbsp. | olive oil |
| 1-2 slices | bacon /optional |
| 400 g | canned tomatoes |
| 2-3 | sprigs of rosemary |
| 150 g | macaroni |
| 200 g | savoy cabbage in coarse pieces |
| 30 g | Parmesan, grated |
| salt, pepper |
Instructions
Step 1 of 5:
Soak the chickpeas in 500 ml water for approx. 8-10 hours with a little salt and soda, then drain the water and rinse the beans under cold running water.
Step 2 of 5:
Place the beans, soup vegetables, bacon, garlic, olive oil, tomatoes, and 1.2l water into the Pressure Cooker. Lay the rosemary sprigs on top. Close the Lid, set cooking level 2, and heat on the hob. Reduce the heat as soon as the yellow ring appears. From this point, the cooking time of 12 minutes begins. Make sure that the temperature indicator constantly remains on the green ring. Reduce the heat further if necessary.
Step 3 of 5:
After the cooking time, slowly release the pressure through the valve and open the Lid.
Step 4 of 5:
Remove the rosemary sprig and add the pasta and savoy cabbage to the pot, stir once, and put the Lid back on.
Step 5 of 5:
Heat again and cook for another 3-4 minutes at level 2. Release the steam and open the pot. Season with salt and pepper and serve onto plates. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and serve.
Tipp:
If you have any Parmesan rind left over, feel free to add it to the pot - it gives a wonderfully rich, savoury flavour.
