The weather people say the weekend will be cooler, but at this time of the year they always say cooler weather is on the way. We shall see if they're right. Fagioli? Beans! One might not think of beans as a summer food, but they can be: Italian markets all have bins of fresh bean pods at this time of year -- mostly cannellini (white beans) and borlotti (cranberry beans), though you can also find heirloom beans in produce stands.
