    In praise of our Italian regional cuisine, I made Professor Zancani's 'pisarei e faśö, a dish that would have made our beloved Zia Elvira, who was born in Berceto but studied in Piacenza proud. Owing to Nonno Diego's clear and precise demonstration and Vicky's enthusiasm after her first taste, I made it quickly and easily from pantry staples, and the resulting dish was a marvelous Sunday treat rich in flavor and complexity in spite of the humble ingredients. Grazie Mille!

    Pasta and beans = Pisarei e fasö! As you have already understood, every Italian family has its own recipe for every traditional dish. This is 1 version of the recipe, keep the ingredients and try to find your own.

    Holy cow, would I love to try this!  For some reason this appealed to me more than most dishes so far and I have loved most of them.  I couldn't hear the frozen liquid he adds though.
