This is my favorite soup recipe ever. I make it multiple times a month because it is SO good. There are tons of Zuppa Toscana Copycat soup recipes floating around the web, but this is the best one BY FAR. And it’s SO MUCH BETTER than the original! I’ve spent years perfecting this recipe and I’m so excited to share it with you!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Here is our main cast of ingredients: chicken broth, Italian sausage, yellow potatoes, onion, fresh garlic, kale, cream (or half-and-half), and bacon crumbles.<\/p>\n

You start by browning your sausage in a big dutch oven or pot. Once it is cooked, remove it from the pan, wipe out the extra oil, and drizzle a little olive oil in your warm pan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Next, add your onion to the pot and saut\u00e9 it for a minute. Then, add your crushed fresh garlic and a little salt and saut\u00e9 until fragrant. Now, grab your favorite white wine and splash a little into the bottom of your pot to deglaze it.<\/p>\n

Once the wine has sizzled a little, pour in your chicken broth and potatoes. Bring to a boil, cover with a lid, reduce heat to low,\u00a0and simmer until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork (10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of your potatoes). Now, put your sausage back in, add your cream, a dash of white pepper, and some salt. Taste your broth to make sure it has enough flavor, if not, you can add a bouillon cube and\/or more salt.<\/p>\n

Once you are satisfied with the flavor, remove from heat and gently press your kale under the broth.<\/p>\n
