Author Notes
This is an unprecedented recipe, however moreover a template. You would possibly perhaps likely perhaps spend any greens, and any herbs. Pretty than the potato, Thomas has bolstered the broth with arborio rice, yams, sautéed mushrooms, or squash. The caramelized onions are key for filling out the flavor of the soup, however there is no motive you would possibly perhaps likely perhaps no longer spend shallots or leeks as a replacement. It be ethical for dinner parties, for brown bag lunches, and for dinners alone with a fridge of greens you do not know what to forestall with. Thomas has moreover broken-down the soup to comfort very ill pals, who said it restored their streak for food and introduced them lend a hand to existence a diminutive.
