"Zuppa Toscana is a hearty Italian soup that’s perfect for cozying up with. Typically made with heavier ingredients, this healthy zuppa toscana is a lightened up version of the classic with every bit as much flavor as you’d expect from this rustic soup. Top it with freshly grated Montasio PDO cheese for a truly delicious dish."

Recipe Card

ingredients

  • 3 nitrate-free pork sausage links, casings removed
  • 32 ounces chicken bone broth
  • 1 tablespoon garlic infused olive oil
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, plus more to taste
  • 3 medium red potatoes, diced
  • 2 cups kale
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 ounces pancetta
  • 1/2 cup Montasio PDO, grated
  • parsley, for serving

Method

  • Step 1

    In a dutch oven or stock pot, brown the sausage crumbles over medium high heat, approximately 3 minutes.

  • Step 2

    Add the broth, herbs and spices, garlic infused olive oil, and diced potatoes to the pot, reducing the heat to medium low. Allow soup to simmer for 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

  • Step 3

    After 30 minutes, add the kale to the soup and stir gently to combine. Allow soup to simmer for another 10 minutes; while doing this, brown the pancetta in a pan over medium heat on the stove top and add to the soup base once finished.

  • Step 4

    Once the pancetta has been added, remove from the heat and stir in milk. You'll also need to remove the bay leaves during this step. Ladle soup into bowls, top with fresh grated Montasio PDO and parsley and enjoy.
