Acquacotta (Italian: [ˌakkwaˈkɔtta]; lit. 'cooked water') is a hot broth-based bread soup in Italian cuisine that was originally a peasant food. Its preparation and consumption dates back to ancient history, and it originated in the coastal area known as the Maremma, in southern Tuscany and northern Lazio.

Variations of the dish include acquacotta con funghi and acquacotta con peperoni. (Full article...)
