Rustic Italian Sausage Soup Zuppa Arcidossana Recipes

ZUPPA ARCIDOSSANA

Steps:

• Put oil in a large pot or deep skillet and brown sausage over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. When sausage is cooked through and leaving brown bits in pan, add carrots, onion and garlic, and continue to cook until vegetables begin to soften and brown, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Add bread to pan and stir for a minute or 2; add spinach and continue cooking just until it wilts, a couple of minutes.
• Add about 2 cups water and stir to loosen any remaining brown bits from pan. This is more of a stew than a soup, but there should be some broth, so add another cup of water if necessary. When broth is consistency of thin gravy, ladle stew into serving bowls and top with cheese and some freshly chopped parsley if you have it. Serve immediately.
