Ribollita is a Tuscan soup made from beans, vegetables and bread. It was a means to “use up” the vegetables in your garden and stale bread. Basically, any vegetable soup can be used to make ribollita, but a traditional ribollita soup recipe always include beans, kale and stale bread. Ribollita literally means “re-boiled”.\u00a0 Cooks would make a pot of vegetable soup one day, then to make it slightly different, they would add kale and any other cooked veggies they had on hand. They would bring the soup to a boil, turn down the heat, then add the stale bread cubes and continue cooking until the bread just started breaking down. The pureed beans and soggy bread give this soup a creamy texture without the addition of dairy.<\/em><\/p>\n

Of course, if you make the soup with vegetable stock, it is a vegetarian dish. Also, some people will add shredded chicken. The soup can also be cooked until all the liquid has cooked off, then it can be scooped onto a lightly greased griddle and cooked like a pancake. The veggie pancake is a wonderful side dish for a protein main dish. Many cooks will make this soup the day before, up to the point of adding the bread. The next day the soup is reheated, the bread is added, and it is ready to serve.<\/p>\n
