I always see this traditional bean salad on antipasto tables all over Italy. Have fun experimenting with different types of beans. I cheat and use organic canned beans, which is still every bit as good! I enjoy a glass of Poggio Grande Tagete with this refreshing salad. I sometimes toss some Italian canned tuna in to make it more filling.
