As I probably already said, I love to eat soups for dinner, and this is definitely great 🙂 it’s thicker than a normal minestrone (someone say that you should be able to eat it even in a flat dish), because of the bread and because of the beans purée, but it’s very tasty especially one…

Vellutata di Porcini – Porcini Cream Soup
This soup will be a perfect recipe to warm your autumn evenings 🙂 its porcini mushroom’s perfume will spread all over the kitchen and it will make it even more inviting! I admit that I prefer to make a good pasta or a good risotto when I have porcini, but when it happens that I…
Zuppa di Ceci – Chickpeas Soup
Here it is another very good and healthy legume soup: I love legumes 🙂 You can find many recipes about chickpeas soups (for example in Tuscany there is a similar recipe but they add fresh tagliolini pasta too), but I really like this one, with the extra flavor given by the rosemary which fits very…
Ököruszály leves – Hungarian Ox Tail Soup
This is my second post about traditional Hungarian recipes, following the previous Harcsapaprikás 🙂 This time it’s about a soup, the ox tail soup (Ököruszály leves in Hungarian). Well, that’s what was usually used in the past, when oxen were used as working animals and there were more of them, nowadays they are less and…
Legumes and Cereals Soup
Here I am again with another wonderful soup 🙂 This typically winter recipe will make you full easily 😀 and I don’t need to say that it’s very healthy. To make it really tasty I suggest to use a little bit of lardo, pancetta or bacon in the base, and also a Parmigiano Reggiano rind…
Fennel Creamy Soup, with Pearled Farro

French Onion Soup – Soupe à l’Oignon Lyonnaise (or Gratinée Lyonnaise)
I love soups, and onion soups are between my favorites. But between all the onion soups, probably the most famous is the french onion soup. I had the chance to try it a couple of times in France, and now that I casually found in a local supermarket a Gruyere AOP and even the Comté…
Zuppa Valdostana (Mountain Soup)
Is it cold enough out there? Then it’s the perfect weather to prepare this super tasty soup! 🙂 The “Zuppa Valdostana” (whose name in the local dialect is “Seupa à la Vapelenentse”) is one of the most typical and famous recipes of Valle D’Aosta region, that small Italian region in the Alps next to France and…
Creamy Pumpkin Soup
We are in October, the autumn has already begun, and with the first cool weather coming for me begins the season of the soups 🙂 I really like soups, especially in autumn/winter I use to prepare them quite often, usually for dinner, and the butternut squash/pumpkin soup I find it very good. Well, it’s not…
