minestrone

Recipe: Minestrone

Minestrone recipe, and long live the rich and generous Italian cuisine. I love this pasta cooked in all these vegetables. I prepared it with a nice oxtail, my soup was tasty and no need for industrial broth. Well, I admit that I am alone for this soup, because my daughter wants me to grind the soup at all costs, with a minestrone should not be overdone. I therefore take advantage of his absence to make the queen of soups, the minestrone. I’ll eat it all weekend and freeze the rest.
