Servings: persons

4 fresh thyme sprigs
1 large fresh rosemary spring
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup chopped onion (1 medium onion)
3 ounces pancetta, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 (14.5 ounce) cans garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with juice
3/4 cup ditalini or other small, tubular pasta
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan, for garnish
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

1
Wrap the thyme, rosemary and bay leaf in a piece of cheesecloth and secure with kitchen twine to make a sachet. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, pancetta and garlic and saute until the onion is tender, about 3 minutes. Add the broth, beans, tomatoes and herb sachet. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then decrease the heat to medium and simmer until the vegetables are very tender, about 10 minutes. Discard the sachet.
2
Transfer 1 cup of the bean mixture to a blender and reserve. Add the ditalini to the soup pot, cover, and bring the liquid back to a boil. Boil gently until the pasta is tender but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Puree the reserved bean mixture until smooth, then stir the puree into the boiling soup. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
3
Ladle the soup into bowls. Sprinkle each serving with some Parmesan and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil.
