Pasta e Fagioli
Today we have a new recipe from @tinastausendschoen for you: Pasta e Fagioli made with Vitavit® Premium Pressure cooker.
Cooking with the Vitavit® Premium Fissler pressure cookers give you valuable time for what you love. Pressure cooking reduces cooking time by up to 70% – precious 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 clicks securely into place and pressure builds up, the cooking time begins. The pressure inside the pot raises the boiling point of liquids from 110°C to up to 116°C. This temperature increase more than halves the cooking time compared to a conventional pot. For example, pasta e fagioli takes only 25 minutes to prepare in just 1 to 1.5 hours.

Ingredients
| 200g | Borlotti or Pinto beans, dried |
| 1 bunch of soup vegetables, finely chopped | |
| 3 cloves of garlic | |
| 2 tbsp | Olive oil |
| 1-2 slices | Bacon /optional |
| 400 g | Canned tomatoes |
| 2-3 rosemary sprigs | |
| 150 g | Macaroni |
| 200 g | Savoy cabbage in large pieces |
| 30 g | Grated Parmesan |
| Salt, pepper |
Instructions
Step 1 of 5:
Soak the chickpeas in 500 ml of water with a little salt and baking soda for approx. 8-10 hours, then drain the water and rinse the beans under cold running water.
Step 2 of 5:
Add the beans, soup vegetables, bacon, garlic, olive oil, tomatoes, and 1.2 l of water to the pressure cooker. Place the rosemary sprigs on top. Close the lid, set to cooking level 2, and heat the stove. Reduce the heat as soon as the yellow ring appears. The cooking time of 12 minutes begins now. Make sure the temperature indicator stays on the green ring. Reduce 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 kale to the pot, stir once, and replace the lid.
Step 5 of 5:
Heat again and cook for another 3-4 minutes on level 2. Release steam and open the pot. Season with salt and pepper and serve in bowls. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and serve.
Tip:
If you have any leftover Parmesan rind, feel free to add it to the pot - it gives a wonderfully savory flavor.
