Zuppa Toscana
We got a request for assistance in duplicating the Olive Garden soup - the Zuppa Toscana. Soups are so basic in their steps, that you will find, if you haven’t experimented enough yet, that the first few steps of this soup are pretty much the first few steps for just about all the recipes that you want to make. Start with moisture, then cook root veggies in spices, then add stock and your feature. It is the same template over and over.
