INSTRUCTIONS
Italy
Rinse the kidney beans in a colander under cold water. Place in a large
heatproof bowl and cover with boiling water. Cover with a plate and let
soak 1 hr.
Heat the olive oil in the pressure cooker over med-high heat. Add the
onion, garlic and pancetta and saute 4 - 5 min, or until the onion is soft.
Stir frequently so that the mixture does not brown. Add the tomato, carrot,
celery, and sage. Saute 2 min, stirring frequently. Drain the soaked kidney
beans and add to the vegetable mixture. Add the stock and water. Stir well.
Place the lid and lock in position. Raise the heat to high and bring to
high pressure. Adjust the heat to stabilize the pressure and cook 15 min.
Remove from heat and lower pressure using the cold-water-release method.
Open the pressure cooker. If the beans are not tender, lock the lid in
position and cook an additional 2 - 3 min, or until tender, under high
pressure.
Open the pressure cooker. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Add
the cooked pasta to the soup. Drizzle each serving with a teaspoon of
extra-virgin olive oil. Serve with grated Pecorino Romano cheese.
