It's essentially another way to use up stale Tuscan bread (since Tuscan bread is made without salt, it hardens quite quickly). Calling a soup made from scratch "ribollita" is a bit of a misnomer. The word means "reboiled," indicating a leftover soup thickened with day-old bread. This kind of dish is typical to la cucina povera, a traditional style of Italian cuisine that literally translates to "poor cooking." Ribollita is one of Tuscany's many famous bread soups.

  16. I had a fair amount of hamburger meat leftover from the previous night. To use it up I turned them into meatballs and added the meat into the soup. I attached the meatball recipe here if you would also like to use the recipe. Bake them as the recipe says and then add the meatballs to the soup. I added them around step 11. - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/361023-sticky-barbacue-meatballs

The word means "reboiled," indicating a leftover soup thickened with day-old bread. This kind of dish is typical to la cucina povera, a traditional style of Italian cuisine that literally translates to "poor cooking." Ribollita is one of Tuscany's many famous bread soups. Typically containing cavolo nero, savoy cabbage, cannellini beans and stale bread, the dish is part of the cucina povera tradition of humble, thrifty dishes, and will likely have contained whichever vegetables were available. Ribollita in Italian means re-boiled, and simply refers to a leftover vegetable soup, mixed with stale bread and then reheated. It was a traditional staple in the Tuscan countryside and was often consumed, as Paolo explains in his book, even at breakfast!
