    Delicious! Definitely will be making this soup again. I love the flavor.

    Followed steps to make soup in instant pot. Added some thinly sliced smoked polish sausage and a bit of red cabbage. 25 minutes on high pressure. Delicious soup with just the right amount of red pepper flakes. Will make again.

    Very tasty with each component working together harmoniously. Warm and hearty and excellent on a chilly day.

    A good winter soup with lots of flavor from the anchovies, Parmesan rind and rosemary. It wasn't as quick as the 25 minutes suggested on the recipe but still a good effort to reward ratio - it makes a lot of soup.

    Inaugural recipe of 2025, absolutely fantastic. Made it in the instant pot with fresh beans (precooked the beans in stock first). Only change was anchovies (didn't have them on hand) for 1 tbs of white miso paste. Amazing. UPDATE: made the recipe 2nd time as written (with anchovies). You know what? White miso was better, and I love anchovies

    Delicious and very quick to put together. We didn't taste any fishy flavours, and I don't know what kind of kale I used, just what was in the garden after years of self-seeding. The broth was the star, use homemade if you can, I've never found a commercial product that produces a really good chicken stock.

    This is so good! The anchovies make it! Next time I will massage the kale more or cook a little longer. The kale was a little too tough.

    Fast and tasty. The anchovy adds an interesting flavor not usually found in soups. I only used 1 anchovy filet though and that was enough for me.

    9/28/19 - Very tasty. Made a half batch for lunch. Used about a teaspoon of anchovy paste rather than filets, and used regular curly kale since I had some that needed to be used.
