Yes, it does have a "dry" texture, but I enjoyed it. You can always add more pasta water to help moisten it, or even add some butter to the cooked pasta. I also warmed the beans with the oil-garlic-chile mixture, rather than adding the beans to the pasta water.Cathleen | My Culinary Missionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00390901882859861177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120809889984494578.post-87175024861670589342014-12-18T09:40:03.895+01:002014-12-18T09:40:03.895+01:00This soup was fantastic!

It looks very family friendly and comforting.<br />Andrea_TheKitchenLionesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05188562947486964076noreply@blogger.com
