Why is my pasta fagioli too thick?

[lilbobby]

Good morning everyone! I need some help – my pasta fagioli keeps turning out way too thick, almost like a stew. I'm aiming for that perfect balance between soup and heartiness. Does anyone have tips on how to thin it down a bit without losing flavor? Grateful for any advice!

Maybe try adding a bit more broth or water to thin it out! Sometimes pasta absorbs too much liquid as it cooks. Adjusting the consistency can help achieve that perfect balance of thickness. Keep experimenting!

You may have overcooked your pasta or added too much, allowing it to absorb too much liquid, if your pasta fagioli is too thick. To get the right consistency, try adding extra water or broth. As an alternative, you may thin down part of the spaghetti or gradually add additional liquid until the desired consistency is reached. Preventing the broth from getting overly thick during cooking may also be accomplished by adjusting the pasta to broth ratio.

Overcooking the pasta or using too much can definitely change the consistency. Adding extra water or broth sounds like a great way to balance it out. I'll keep an eye on the pasta to broth ratio next time to get that perfect consistency. Appreciate the advice!
