Notes
Always use the vegetables that are in season
Include beans or potatoes to make it creamier
If you are using dry borlotti beans you need to soak them in water overnight
Pulse and vegetables may require different cooking times. Do not cook them all at once but paste them according to their cooking time. Vegetables should not be too mushy or undercooked. Generally, you would need to add beans, potatoes, and solid vegetables like broccoli, carrots, and zucchini first, leaves-vegetable ( like chard, spinach, cabbage) on the last 3 to 5 minutes of cooking. Seasoning at the end.
You can season with herbs, extra virgin olive oil, fat (butter or lard), Parmesan, or Pecorino cheese. However, they should be added carefully nor too abundant to overtake the flavor nor too scarce. You need to find the right balance.
Cook the pasta or the rice separately, and add them to the serving plate. You can use pastina or small pasta like ditalini.
