ITALIAN HARVEST SOUP



Italian Harvest Soup image

I love soups, but I love to make different ones all the time, otherwise it gets boring. This is a nice spin on vegetable soup. The dry salami to use is hot soppressata, which can be bought in the supermarket here in the Northeast, but certainly at any Italian deli.

Tips:

  • To make the soup extra flavorful, roast the vegetables before adding them to the soup pot. This will caramelize the vegetables and give them a richer flavor.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your soup. This will give the soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good vegetables to use include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, parsnips, and turnips.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. A few well-chosen herbs and spices can really elevate the flavor of your soup. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, sage, garlic, and black pepper.
  • If you want a thicker soup, you can puree some of the vegetables before adding them to the soup pot. You can also add a thickening agent, such as flour or cornstarch, to the soup.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.
