CUCUZZA STEW

This was my mother's and grandmother's recipe for using Cucuzza. It contains no meat but I sometimes add good Italian Sausages. Another good addition is wide green beans. This will serve 4 or 2 hungry Italians!

I grew up with this recipe. My grandmother would sometimes cook hers without the ground meat and would add a handful of fettucini to the pot.
