The best minestrone!!!!

Several years ago there was piece in the Boston Globe magazine/food section called "Big Soup". In it there were 3 different minestrone soup recipes by Carlo Middione(La Vera Cucina:Traditional Recipes from the Homes and Farms of Italy). These soups are SPECTACULAR!!!! I just purchased the book today. I don't yet know about the rest of his recipes,but if these soups are any indication, the rest of the book must be wonderful!

Real, no-nonsense food!

Found the book while browsing at the public library. The broccoli soup made me borrow it and the results made me buy it. Simple, straight, delicious, no fuss food!
