Description
This quick and comforting Italian soup is the perfect pick-me-up on a cool day and a tonic for anyone feeling under the weather. Classic chicken soup aromatics like onion, carrot and celery are blended and then folded into the soup, giving the broth a smooth, velvety texture. The soup gets more body from pastina (Italian for “little pasta”); any small cut will work for this recipe, just make sure to follow the instructions on the package for boiling times. A garnish of Parmesan, fennel fronds and lemon keeps the soup bright and gives it irresistible Italian cred.
