There is nothing quite as satisfying as a bowl of rich, hearty soup. Soups are eaten in almost every corner of the world and over the years, certain soups have become associated with particular countries. Italy is no exception, with several regions boasting claim to some of the world's best soups. Pasta Fazool (Minestrone) is synonymous with the Southern region of Italy. Fazool is from the Italian word: fagioli, which means bean. The Neapolitans perfected this thick, three bean, multi-vegetable pasta soup which entitled them to rename the dish in their own dialect and it thus became known as Pasta Fazool. People today eat soup for different reasons than they did yester year. Once considered an inexpensive meal for the poor, soup has become popular among the health conscious consumers of today. There is a saying about soups in Southern Italy which translates to: Soup does seven things. It relieves your hunger, quenches your thirst, fills your stomach, cleans your teeth, makes you sleep, helps you digest and colors your cheeks. Give Alessi Pasta Fazool a try and let us know if the old saying might still prove to be right. | | | Features: | |

Rich and speedyApr 30, 2010 I first bought these for backpacking on Cascade and Olympic mountain trails, but found I use them as often in the home! This is a rich, flavorful soup that's as easy to make as boiling water. I tend to buy them in bulk because I give as many to friends as I use for myself. I've used other Alessi products with equal satisfaction.
bean soupFeb 24, 2010 product was easy to make and tastsed great!the reason for only 4 stars instead of 5,was it only makes 2 bowls of soup!other soups tried made a lot more and just as good taste.

I love this soupNov 05, 2009 This is a excellent soup. Good winter time soup. You can add your own choice of meat. I prefer sausage. The store I normally shop and purchase this soup from had been out for several weeks. Thanks to Amazon I was able to find it here, and a little cheaper also. Fast delivery. Thanks

Excellent Taste and So Quick and Easy to PrepareJun 08, 2009 I don't hesitate a minute serving this instant type soup to guests. It is delicious and when I share my recipe for this with them -- "Open package, add water and simmer a few minutes" -- they are amazed that this is a packaged product. It tastes homemade and long simmered and delicious. I was completely pleased with this product.
