20 min
Media
4/6

Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Add the onion and fennel and cook over medium heat until soft; 3-5 minutes. Add the kale, cannellini beans and vegetable broth; bring to a boil and cook for 3 minutes. Using an immersion mixer, pulse 5-6 times so that some of the ingredients are well blended but there are still a lot of chunks.
Add the Whole Grain Organic Poggio del Farro Farro Ditalini Pasta and cook for 6-7 minutes.* Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Ladle into bowls and garnish with chopped reserved fennel fronds.
Serve immediately.
*On the package it is recommended to cook the pasta for 9 minutes but in this recipe the time should be reduced as the pasta will continue to cook in the broth when served.
