Add a photoSuprise, surprise. Another amazing recipe adapted from Marcella Hazan's Essential's of Italian Cooking. This is one of my bibles. Not only did I love this spinach soup, but all four of my kids did too! Everyone had mutiple servings. We served it with simple sourdough toast, though Crostini (Italian croutons) is what Marcella calls for. This is a healthy and wonderful dish!
Ингредиенты
- 3 lbs fresh spinach
- 3 Tbsp butter
- 1/2 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cups high quality chicken, beef, or vegetable broth
- 1 cup low fat milk
- 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
- 5 Tbsp freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 Tsp salt
Инструкции
- Clean spinach and put in a pot with 3-4 cups water and 1 tsp salt. Cover and cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes (you many need to stir to cook evenly).
- Keep the water from the cooked spinach to use as the base for the broth that you add (if you are using concentrated or dried broth that needs to be reconstituted). Otherwise, discard it.
- Put the butter and onion in a large soup pot and turn to medium. Saute until the onion becomes pale gold, about 4 minutes. Add the spinach and saute uncovered for 2-3 minutes, stirring.
- Add the broth, milk, and nutmeg, and bring to a simmer stirring occassionally. Add the grated Parmesan, stirring thoroughly, taste and correct for salt.
- Turn of the heat and serve into bowls with toast or crostini on the side.
- Server with fresh ground pepper on the table for those who want it.

This was fast and easy prepare. Fantastic flavor, although I used a little less butter and added the nutmeg on top of the soup for those that wanted it rather than adding it in while cooking. I give it 5 hearts!Этот рецепт был приготовлен/опробован мной!Содержит вариацию

John, I am making this recipe today, and am pleased with all the wonderful comments. As an Italian, there are some minor modifications that I am adding to this recipe. 1) I am using 1/2 butter and 1/2 olive oil. 2) My grandmother also added egg to this recipe when I was a kid; however, I am not using it today, but it is an option and it will slightly change the flavor. 3) Instead of the nutmeg, a true Italian will venture with the garlic. Yummy! 4) Low fat milk is used to reduce calories, however, cream would normally be used in Italy. I am using Organic Almond Milk. This sounds delicious, and I cannot wait to taste it. Thanks for this recipe as it brought back memories.Этот рецепт был приготовлен/опробован мной!Содержит вариацию
