Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

Fagiolata is a true feast for bean lovers: a thick soup made with many different types of beans, each contributing to the final flavor and texture of the dish. Red beans, black beans, borlotti , cannellini , or any other varieties are slowly simmered and flavored with salt, pepper, and olive oil. Nowadays, fagiolata is served with toasted bread, but originally it was a great way to use the old, hardened bread which was placed on the plate before pouring the hot soup in it. The soup would soak the bread, thus making it delicious and soft once again. A drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil before serving additionally enhances the flavors of this hearty dish.
