Sagna Torta con Fagioli Borlotti Abruzzese
Abruzzo — inland mountain provinces, L'Aquila and Chieti
Twisted pasta squares (sagne torte — pasta squares cut then twisted by pressing one corner down) combined with Borlotti beans in a hearty, smoky-fatback-based soup from the Abruzzo mountains. The pasta is handmade from flour and water, cut into 5cm squares, and each square twisted by pressing the opposite corners in opposite directions. This shape creates irregular, cupped pasta that traps the thick bean broth. Guanciale or lardo is rendered as the fat base; dried chilli provides heat; the soup is thick enough to stand a wooden spoon in.
