Time 40m

1 whole hot chorizo sausage

Steps:

  • Wash the rapini and cut off the florets, saving them for another day or add them to the soup with the stalks. Remove the tough stems from the rapini leaves and reserve. Stack the leaves, then cut them into thin strips and set aside. Rinse the can of beans.
  • In a large pot, add the broth, water, sausage, potatoes, rapini stems that have been reserved, beans and seasonings then simmer until the potatoes are almost tender. At this point, remove the rapini stems and discard. Add the chopped rapini leaves to the soup, and simmer on med/ low until the rapini is cooked. Adjust for salt and pepper if desired.
  • If you like, you can slice the chorizo sausage into slices and add it back to the finished soup. I like to serve mine on the side, allowing people to add what they like.

I've always enjoyed cooking and recently created this rich soup. It's always a hit. You can also garnish it with chopped green onion tops or shredded Swiss cheese. For a creamier, smoother consistency, try pouring the soup through a strainer. -Nathan Mercer Inman, South Carolina

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold, red, or russet potatoes work well in this soup. Yukon Gold and red potatoes hold their shape well, while russet potatoes will give the soup a creamier texture.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: The potatoes should be tender, but not mushy. Check them with a fork after about 15 minutes to see if they are done.
  • Use fresh rapini: Rapini is a bitter green that has a slightly peppery flavor. It is important to use fresh rapini in this soup, as dried rapini will not have the same flavor.
  • Don't crowd the pan when cooking the rapini: If you crowd the pan, the rapini will steam instead of sautéing. This will make it less flavorful.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You may also want to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.

Conclusion:

This creamy potato and rapini soup is a delicious and easy-to-make meal. It is perfect for a cold winter day. The soup is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and iron. So next time you are looking for a healthy and comforting meal, give this soup a try.
