How to make the Bean Soup Baked with Bread:


Ribollita, literally means "re-boiled". This does not means the soup is re-boiled, but rather refers to the use of leftover bean soup.

Arrange the soup and the bread in layers in a baking pan. Add broth as necessary to moisten. Cover the upper layer with thinly sliced onions. Sprinkle generously with olive oil and put in the oven until hot. Serve hot.

Let your guests add extra-virgin olive oil to according to taste. The addition of oil gives the dish a silky, smooth texture.
