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 reduces cooking time by up to 70% - valuable time you can use for things that matter to you even more than cooking. In Fissler Pressure Cookers, your ingredients and their aromas are sealed airtight. Once the lid clicks securely into place and pressure builds up, cooking begins. Inside the pot, excess pressure raises the boiling point of liquids from 110°C to up to 116 °C. This increase in temperature ensures that cooking time is more than halved compared with a conventional Cooking Pot. For Pasta e Fagioli, this means you need just 25 minutes to prepare the complete dish instead of 1 – 1,5 hours.
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 | Macceroni |
| 200 g | savoy cabbage in large pieces |
| 30 g | Parmesan, grated |
| salt, pepper |
Instructions
Step 1 of 5:
Soak the chickpeas for approx. 8-10 hours in 500 ml water with a little salt and baking 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 stove. Reduce the heat as soon as the yellow ring appears. From this point, the cooking time of 12 minutes begins. Make sure the temperature indicator stays constantly 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 again at level 2 for another 3-4 minutes. Release the steam and open the pot. Season with salt and pepper and serve on plates. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and serve.
Tipp:
If you have any leftover Parmesan rind, feel free to add it to the pot - it gives a wonderfully savoury flavour.
