What is "cooked water"?

• riffraff 5y ago
  "acquacotta". The recipe varies, but in my hometown it's basically a soup made with onions, potatoes, stale bread and raw olive oil, plus whatever was around to give it flavour (broccoli, wild water cress, dried cod, lard). It's not "bad" but you definitely can feel it being the cheapest thing that you could do to fill you up.
