Scattone is a unique Italian soup originating from Molise. It's made with a combination of water from cooking pasta, red wine, and a pinch of pepper or a chopped diavolillo chili pepper. The pasta variety that's cooked in the water for this soup should be sagne or taccozze, and the water is poured into a separate cup once the pasta is about half cooked.

Red wine is then added to the cup, along with a pinch of pepper. The soup is always served piping hot. The red wine used for the soup should preferably be Molise's Tintilia wine. Scattone was invented as a simple relief against winter chills, and nowadays it even has its own festival called La Sagra dello Scattone, held each year in August in the towns of Bagnoli del Trigno and Torella del Sannio.
