Mamma's Escarole Soup image

That's Dom DeLuise's Mamma. The recipe originated in Spinosa, Italy. If you want a carnivorous variation, you can some spareribs and/or Italian sausages with the garlic, and brown well before adding anything else. To make this completely vegetarian, use vegetable stock in place of chicken stock. You can add water or a little more broth if the soup is too thick. Serve with hot Italian bread.

I think this soup would be even better with some crusty bread on the side.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup was perfect. I think the key is to not overcook the escarole.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really bitter.

I'm not a big fan of escarole, but I really enjoyed this soup. The escarole was cooked perfectly and didn't have any bitterness. The broth was also very flavorful.

This soup was delicious! The escarole gave it a slightly bitter flavor that was balanced out by the sweetness of the carrots and onions. I also loved the addition of the beans, which added a boost of protein and fiber.
