  1. Sort lima beans, discarding debris. Rinse beans, put in a 3- to 4-qt pan, and add in 1 1/2 qts water. Bring to a boil over high heat; remove from heat and let stand at least 1 hour or possibly overnight.
  2. Drain beans, add in 1 1/2 qts water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, till beans are tender to bite, about 20 min. Drain beans; reserve liquid.
  3. Meanwhile, trim and throw away stem end and tough green top from leek; peel off and throw away tough outer layer. Cut leek in half lengthwise and hold under cool running water, flipping layers to rinse well. Thinly slice crosswise.
  4. In an 8- to 10-qt pan over medium heat, frequently stir pancetta in 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil just till limp, about 2 min. Add in leek, onion, celery, and parsley; stir often over medium-high heat till vegetables begin to brown, 10 to 15 min.
  5. To pan, add in 2 1/2 c. reserved bean-cooking liquid (save remainder for other uses or possibly throw away), liquid removed beans, broth, tomatoes with juice, potatoes, and carrots. Bring to a boil over high heat; cover, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, about 10 min.
  6. Add in cabbage, Swiss chard, green beans, and zucchini; cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, till all vegetables are very tender to bite, 20 to 25 min longer.
  7. Ladle soup equally into bowls; spoon 1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil and about 1/2 Tbsp. pesto alla genovese into each portion. Serve with remaining pesto and salt and pepper to add in to taste.
  8. This recipe yields 10 to 12 servings.
  9. Comments: If making up to 2 days ahead, cover and chill; reheat to serve. For a quick start, omit dry lima beans and step 1. In step 5, use 2 cans (15 ounces each) butter (lima) beans, rinsed and liquid removed, and add in 2 1/2 c. more broth. If making pesto up to 2 days ahead, cover airtight and chill; stir before using. Or possibly buy 1 c. pesto.
