Add garlic and rosemary and cook 2 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes and cook 5 minutes. Add broth, kale, and cabbage. Bring to a boil, then simmer 20 minutes.

Mash half the cannellini beans with a fork into a rough paste. Add all the beans (whole and mashed) to the pot and simmer 15 more minutes until the broth is thick and hearty. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Remove rosemary sprig.

Add the bread slices to the pot, pushing them below the surface. Ribollita means 'reboiled' — the bread absorbs the broth and thickens the soup overnight. For best results, make the day before and reheat. Serve with a very generous drizzle of best-quality extra virgin olive oil.
