Congratulations Ada, delicious recipes your. I have tried some and loved.
In this Ferguson was looking for a summer soup and so I ran into your pasta e fagioli and I was pleased to see that prepare like me, only I prefer beans with Sage and Basil (I adore!).
I also really like the Sage with beans, as well as Rosemary. But in summer I put the Basil just to give freshness to the soup, I serve lukewarm. Thanks so much for your compliments and I hope you like all the recipes you do. Happy August. ADA.
