Nonna Igea in action making one of her favorite pasta recipes: Pasta e fagioli. Pasta e fagioli (also known as Pasta and fazool or pasta and fasule) is an ancient pasta part of the "cucina povera". Pasta e fagioli has been around for decades and it's still a very popular dish in Italian households. Back in the old days, during WWII Pasta and fagioli was an everyday dish as it was easy and cheap to make. Beans were named "Poor Man's Meat" as they are full of proteins. This pasta is kind of a beans soup with pasta. The pasta nonna uses is a handmade pasta shape called "sagne" which is typical from the region of Abruzzo.
