It is, as with many soups, thicker and even more delicious the second day. Add 1/2 to 1 cup of water before reheating, if you want a brothier soup.
Winter Minestrone
Serves: 6 to 8 (12 cups)
Ingredients
1½ cups chopped onions
5 or 6 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
1 cup diced celery
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup peeled and diced carrots
1 cup peeled and diced parsnips
1 cup chopped fennel bulb
1½ cups peeled and cubed sweet potatoes
2 teaspoons ground fennel seeds
2 teaspoons dried oregano
⅛ to ¼ teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon freshly ground dried rosemary or 1 fresh rosemary sprig
3 cups canned tomatoes in juice, chopped or pureed
2 to 3 cups water
½ cup dry red wine (optional)
1½ cups cooked drained kidney beans (15-ounce can)*
¾ cup chopped fresh parsley
freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
In a large nonreactive soup pot, saute the onions, garlic, and celery in the oil on low heat for 10 minutes. Stir in the salt, carrots, parsnips, and chopped fennel, and then cover and continue to cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.Add the sweet potatoes, ground fennel, oregano, red pepper flakes, and rosemary and simmer for about 5 minutes.
(If the vegetables stick or begin to brown, add a splash of water.)
Add the tomatoes, water, and, if using, the wine. Cover and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes. Add the beans and parsley and cook for another 10 minutes.
Serve plain or topped with grated Parmesan cheese.
Notes
* White and red kidneys are both fine, and if you prefer to substitute another type of
bean, go right ahead.
