Simple and delicious, pasta with beans and clams is a traditional dish from Campania that brings together the sea and the land. This dish is mainly a summer dish, when mussels are at their best. This recipe is strictly made with short mixed pasta, but alternatively, tubetti from Gragnano IGP are also perfect. The ideal place to taste this wonderful traditional dish is, of course, Campania, and more specifically at the famous chalets of Castellammare di Stabia. These are characteristic kiosks near the port. Some recommendations are Chalet Laura and Chalet Annamaria.
