Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • treay on June 25, 2025

    This soup is an old Italian recipe that was considered poor man’s food. Hubby thought it had a very mild taste at first but the flavour developed and it was actually very tasty. Mostly vegetarian except for some speck that it’s optional. I used risoni instead of broken up fettucini because the packet was already opened and had to be used. It worked really well. Lovely dinner for a cold winter night.
