Taste of Europe in a Stew

 Laslo, the wonderful polish vendor from the market, came back from his 3 week vacation from Hungary and brought amazing vegetables, like Hungarian alanyalma paprika. I thought they'll be great in the minestrone, but turned out too hot.  So here you see them as a gorgeous light orange harissa, and that was perfect.  Joined by super sweet onions and wonderful borlotti beans from Bella Italia.
